Vegemite can even be used in general cooking, it adds an extra bite to gravies :)
It is a bit strong for newcomers but once you've become used to it, you will be like me, sneaking spoonfuls (well really dipping a finger in it while the Mrs isn't looking) every time you walk past the pantry :p

Hey, that`s great. I appreciate it.
Can`t wait to give it a try.

I once got some vegemite from an Australian girl in a secret santa type thing.  As we got more and more drunk, Vegemite served as punishment for party fouls. 

I've seen less pain in a 4 year old's eyes as he realizes that he must eat the broccoli.

I've heard the stuff is very yucky! Is that correct or incorrect?

that depends on your definition of "yucky"

I think it's an acquired taste  :D

Mom. Vegemite, it awesome stuff...
The best known cure for a hangover is a thick Vegemite sandwich (You'll never find a better source of B-vites!) and a large glass of juice.
A Vegemite sandwich actually has more Vitamin B than a any of the Vitamin B complexes you can buy.
It's a great morning starter on toast, it goes well with cheese (It's an average kids favourite lunchtime food).
I use it in cooking sauces and gravies.
Most don't like it as thick as I do, but it's something you'll not be able to get enough of once you get the taste for!
Remember, usually all you need is a thing even coating, not enough to cover up the bread and butter completely, you want to be able to see it underneath. :aok

Sd67 has the correct vegemite application amount right there.

Even but thin, it's not peanut butter or jam, it's potent stuff that only requires a small amount for the best taste.

Ooooops! SD I replied to quick in the other post.
We don`t get our mail here until 3:00 P.M. or after.
Went to check the mail after posting and there it was. :)
Immediately came home and put some whole wheat bread in the toaster and broke out the butter.
I got one thing to say. WOW!  :lol
This stuck R O C K S!!!!!!!!!!!
About the only way I can explain it is it turns ordinary toast into something with the taste resembling
a really good home baked bread..........with a kick.
Thanks again.
