Slow day at the office so someone had to justify their employment.

Some idiot probably thinks Penguin bars are made from an endangered species

Vegemite has disappeared of the shelves of my local supermarket, not sure why, but have had to resort to Marmite .......ughhh.

Richard, your Marmite is not like ours (Kiwi Marmite)
Kiwi Marmite is great!

Whereas Vegemite .... MMMMMMMM!!!!

Tried Vegemite on a few Americans: they think Australian mothers should be charged with child cruelty for giving it to their kids!!!

Lucky for me the local World Market has it from time to time, so with that, plus the occasional 'care package' from friends in Australia, I can keep supplied. Now Bundaberg Rum, however, is a whole different story. Just cannot get it here in the US of A.

Hoard and hide your Tim Tams...they may be next!

You have Tim Tams in Canada?
Good Lord, the place is more civilised than I thought!

The vital instruction with Vegemite is to use it sparingly. It may look a lot like axle grease but don't plaster it on in the same way. Very few people would appreciate the taste if consumed in a large dose.

You should try it on Toast or a Sao biscuit instead, much tastier!

Very perceptive Tony! I had a good laugh, thank you! Great way to start the day.
