| Little ray of sunshine  |
After years of being curious, I ordered a bottle of Vegemite from Amazon. I made some toast, buttered it up and spread a little Vegemite on it. You use less Vegemite than butter. I can see the appeal. It is VERY strongly flavored. It is salty and very savory and umami. I don't think I will love it the way an Australian who has eaten in from birth loves it, but it is good. People like it on avocado toast, and I can see that. Live and learn. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | ||

It's okay, but definitely in small amounts. | |||

I enjoy it on toast. However, it's even better when you add it to beef stews and soups. ___________________________________________ "Why is it every time I need to get somewhere, we get waylaid by jackassery?" -Dr. Thaddeus Venture | |||

That makes complete sense - it would punch up any savory, meaty dish. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

THIS I use it mainly to punch-up my Bolognese Sauce. Anchovies, chicken livers, marmite/vegimite, fish sauce and soy sauce, all are umami bombs you can use to pump-up your dish and give some depth. | |||

What timing! I had Vegemite on my toast for the first time in a year or so today. A friend brought some from Australia last time she visited, and every once in a while I get the urge... | |||

My wife likes Marmite. I suppose I should try it some time, rather than going to my grave believing it's hideous just because "people say..." If that doesn't kill me, maybe I'll give vegemite a go someday. "America is at that awkward stage.

Many years ago my ex and I were on a snorkeling tour boat on the Great Barrier Reef. They had snacks on deck and I grabbed a roll and spread on what I thought was some kind of chocolate sauce. Seemed odd, but whatever. You can imagine my salty surprise!!! Blech!  SIGforum: For all your needs! Imagine our influence if every gun owner in America was an NRA member! Click the box>>>  | |||

Tried it once in the Red Center at the base of Kata-Tjuta. I figure if I was going to like it, I would like it there. I didn’t. -Rob I predict that there will be many suggestions and statements about the law made here, and some of them will be spectacularly wrong. - jhe888 A=A | |||

Never tried it or Marmite. I'd try them both, though. I've added anchovy paste to stews and sauces for the flavor, but neither of these. ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer.

I have a bottle I got for my birthday. I used it exactly one time. | |||

I used to live in Australia, where the vegemite sandwich is a staple. Buttered bread, with the vegemite spread on the butter. I didn't like it then, don't like it now. Marmite, either. It's an acquired taste that I never acquired. | |||
