Yeah vegemite is ok on snadwiches in a very thin layer. Promite, on the other hand, is very yum.

I dont mind promite Either, however, promite with butter is awful!!!! Promite has to be with margerine to taste nice otherwise the strong flavour of the butter overpowers the promite and tastes yuck.

Vegemite on the other hand can be enjoyed with both! I'm a big fan!

I just cannot swallow that sh!t down, I think you have to be Aussie to love it.
Weird though, coz I can easily chow down a bag of double-salted licorice. :1syellow1

I'm surprised you guys shitting on Vegemite like beer, which is, just waterwith a yeast infection...

And as for promite and marmite, they are themost digusting thing in the world.Besides maybe raw brown stuff.

Im one of them sicko's who dilutes it in a drink. I cant get enough of the stuff. The army Ration packs have them in tubes and i can go for hours just eating it on its own.

Any, i love it too when you get tourists to taste it and the spit it out and ask which part of your car it lubricates?

I've always pondered, from a young age, what Vegemite tastes similar to, but I still haven't thought of anything similar! I do love the stuff though...

A more appropriate name would be vege-shite. Because I can imagine that poo wouldn't taste much worse.

It's gets my vote!

Hot, buttered toast and vegemite... every other morning, it's my breakfast of choice.

I got back from an early morning surf a little while ago, and partner asks, "did you bang your head?"

I still had vegemite in my face...

I cannot understand how people can eat Vegemite...or Promite...or Marmite. They all taste absolutely terrible.

Give me jam or peanut butter any day.

I love vegemite on hot toast - with butter.
The vegemite must be put on thinly.. in 9 little patches. (like a square. 3 up, 3 across)

Nothing beats a good vegemite on toast hit!!!
