Vegemite on Salada's or Vegemite and cheese toasties, cant beat it. Its an acquired taste :-)

I went mad........ googled for "vegemite recipes"

There are some strange ones!

This sounds nice......

I might make that later.

:-D

Every Aussie knows that Vegemite is packed with Vitamin B....... the best stuff if you have a hangover! :-D

I eat vegemite and vegemite and cheese on toast.. we even have children's vegemite here. I know cause I got told that I had used my grandson's vegemite when I was staying at my daughter's place.

They also make cheeseymite but I have given that a miss.

My cousins in the states like it and we used to always have to take some when we went over but now they can order it from some place in San Diego.

I made the Pull-apart.

It was OK, but I wouldn't rave about it.

DH said it was like cheese scones with vegemite :-)

Easier to make grilled cheese with vegemite :-D

Marmite flatbreads seen yesterday in our nearest Waitrose.

I gather its pretty good at stripping paint. :-D :-D :-D

Well lord help my stomach then

Hi Gwyn,
2 weeks ago, daughter took me to Waitrose with the intention of buying some (I know they do marmite crisps as well). Unfortunately, they'd run out of both crisps & flatbreads :-(

They did, however have crisp sized packets of small Marmite rice cakes. Not as good as the big Marmite rice cakes, made by 'Fudges', who also make the flatbreads, but pleasant enough :-D

Oooh - just remembered - I bought some Marmite chocolate at the weekend. I haven't tasted it, it's for Christmas :-D

"marmite with boiled egg and soldiers"

One of the best culinary experiences of my childhood. I had forgotten all about it so gave it a go this morning. Better than ever :-)

There is something worse than veggimite though its odour does not hang around in quite the same way. The Americans like to put a concoction on their food they call "gravy". It looks like something the turkey brought up and tastes far worse. The version served in fast food chains is even more dire.. Avoid.

About 30 years ago I met a man who "painted" with vegemite! No, not the walls of his house, but kids do that.

All sorts of subjects, and he sold them! I didn't buy one.

I would imagine the paintings were varnished, because the vegemite would eventually fade & fall off

:-D

for your enjoyment........... Vegemite advertisement from the 1950s :-D
