Who Doesnt Like Vegemite ?

[squidipa]

my son is allergic to some product in it so does that mean he hates it or is it just his body that hates it lol

[BloominRoses]

I HATE it. I think it's the most repulsive substance known to humans and I can't believe anyone buys it.

Disclaimer: I was born in Canada and am also half-American so that could be why but I think it's like ingesting a glop-full of the most salty, tar-like stuff packaged as edible food. I was tricked into eating it the 2nd day I moved to Australia 4yrs ago and I literally vomited the toast right back up into the sink!

Oh - and my running joke whenever I hear on tv or read in the newspaper that Australian children are suffering an obesity problem is that Aussie kids really aren't overweight at all. It's just all the water retention from consuming too much salt thanks to Vegemite. I actually wouldn't be surprised if that were true!!

:yeahthat:



I cant stand vegemite, never have! lol

[angelaartsstudent]

I used to eat it by the teaspoonful as a child.

Shame on me.

I do love it but funnily enough, since being pregnant, it's the LAST thing I have wanted on anything, ever.

As an example of what a major change in character that is for me - for Xmas one year, my grandparents bought me a jumbo jar of it, and wrapped it and everything! I was so grateful! :-P

Salty axle grease! It's absolutely disgusting in taste, look and smell!

Born in Australia, so it's not just the foreigners that hate the stuff!

I love it, the kids love it, DH doesn't love it, but he still eats it. Happy little vegemites over here

omg i thort my DS was the only one in Australia allegic to it...doc advised me to just keep gving it to him every now and then as his reaction wasnt to bad and his body would build up an immune to it...he eats it all the time now with just a tiny reaction...

my self i do like it but i have to be craving it to eat it!!

[briggsy's girl]

i like vegemite but in small doses - just a scraping - can't do what some do and lather my toast in vegemite - waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much! a teeny jar of vegemite lasts months here! i can't have grilled cheese on toast or toasted cheese sanga without a bit of vegemite though - the two just compliment each other!

I am here to tell you all that those of you who don't like Vegemite, are eating it wrong lol.
It MUST be on toast, not bread. It MUST be spread an inch thick, and it MUST be spread over a layer of real butter (or, at least, some spread that TASTES like butter, not margarine, kwim?). Oh, and it MUST be kept in the fridge because room-temp Vegemite tastes pretty foul, it's only good when it's cold.

I'm another Vegemite lover. Mum used to keep me quiet as a kid by popping me in a high chair and handing me a jar of Vegemite While I was pg with DD, my breakfast nearly every morning was a slice of toast with crunchy peanut butter, a slice of toast with half a jar of Vegemite smeared all over it, and a glass of milk to wash it all down.

Love the stuff. Love it, love it, love it. DD is always in the fridge grabbing out a loaf of bread and the 'maninamite' so I can make her a sandwich



...Promite, on the other hand... *vomits*

Vegemite is also very good for gravies and casseroles!
