here is some info for every one who dont no..thanks for your reply aswell.. While highly popular in Australia and New Zealand, it has never been successfully marketed elsewhere. It is notorious for the dislike it generates amongst some foreigners, particularly Americans. Note that Vegemite is not liked by all Australians - many find it far too salty to be palatable - but it remains an iconic symbol of Australia. Vegemite is often spread with liberal amounts of butter to help to soften the strong taste, or with sliced or melted cheese.

Australia, home of vegemite - Australia, home of Vegemite
I think it could be almost considered to be 'unAustralian' not to eat vegemite. LOL Vegemite is fantastic when spread with lots of butter on really fresh bread, and that is only one of the ways to eat it.:)

I have tried it, when I was a teenager we were out camping and there was a couple from Australia beside us, they made us all a vegiemite sandwich and I can say without a doubt it is the worst tasting food I have ever tried to eat

I've heard of it. I think Men at Work made it a household word LOL I've never tasted it, though, and I don't have the slightest clue what it is. What's it made of? What does it taste like - I doubt I'll ever get the opportunity to taste it LOL
