[net.followup] vegemite

Wonderful stuff!

I just got back from New Zealand (and Australia etc..) and brought back half
a dozen bottles of the stuff.  Its Marmite in New Zealand and Vegemite
in Australia and it sure as hell confused customs when I brought it in, but
I already rue the day I'll run out.

By the way, Vegemite in Australia is made by Kraft, I guess if there was
a large enough demand, it would be available here.  Marmite in NZ is
made by the church (7th Day Adventists) and sold by the Sanitarium
health food chain.

As it says on the bottle "Unequalled for sandwiches, soups or stews,
try it as a drink!"

Sounds like Filboid Studge to me

I think Vegemite is actually a derivative of soylent(sp?) green.
At least it tastes that way.
