vegimite
Keith:
This is my second request on the formula for this weird product. Do they roast it, fry it or boil it. or eat it on a stick like a popcicle? I sure hope those Chappies down under will excuse me not knowing the right culinary use of this weird food stuff. Do they fish for it,shoot it or harvest it or use it as a hardner for cement. : : : |

Yum Vegemite!
Hey Norm, vegemite is nothing more than spent yeast from beer brewing! I've only had the opportunity to try it once in....of all places....the Middle East. While on leave from peace keeping duties I travelled to Petra in the south of Jordan and happened to bump into a couple from Aus. During our chat I mentioned that I had never tried vegemite and lo and behold, she had brought a jar with her. (Never leave home without it!) Anyway, I tried some and actually quite liked it! They use it like a spread on crackers or bread. I've been looking for a supplier here in Tx. but no luck so far. Just as an aside, I've got a couple of haggis's?....haggi?....what is the plural for haggis anyway? in my freezer from my last trip to Canada. Now theres a treat! But thats a topic for another thread. Any other haggis lovers out there?
Cheemo! |

Never leave home without it. I think that Vegemite is one of those universal products, like Duct tape, Crazy glue, J-B Weld etc that fixes everything from a leaky exhaust to a broken high heeled shoe. That and the fact that it is also edible (?) and used as an emergency food suppliment...

Haggis!
Sorry, I'm not a native Texan, I've only been here 3 years...sweet pickled pork...sounds good, what is it!? lol
As for the haggis, when I'm back in Vancouver visiting family and friends I get my haggis from a little British food store thats on the main street in Steveston, B.C. Its the best haggis around in North America! We just recently celebrated Robbie Burns day and couldn't do without the great"chieftain o' the puddin' race!" We have a couple of large Celtic festivals here in Tx. so I'm hoping someone puts me on to a supply locally...now, how about some Vegemite! Cheemo! |

Karmen-Haggis
If you want to order the best haggis in the east,do a search for Muir's Bakery in Maxville,Ontario,just south of Ottawa.Maxville is also home on the first weekend of August to North America's largest HEEland Games.I competed there five times meself.Our band finished third in Grade 4 competition.By the way,Muirs make a great beefsteak & kidney pie.Now I'm salivating!!

Re. Vegemite
Hi all you converts to Vegemite,
Probably the best way to eat this food of the gods is to toast a couple of crumpets, spread them with nice thick butter and a thin layer of Vegemite on top. Then after devouring these you can lick your hands and arms and get the rest of the Vegemite and butter that soaked through the crumpets. And don't forget a large mug of Billy Tea. Of course on cold mornings its brewed coffee sugared with Captain Morgans Rum. Hooroo (Oz for goodbye) I'm off to the kitchen. I just made myself hungry again. Bob |

Cut your grass, sweep up the cuttings, grind them into paste (while still fresh), then grind up a couple of june bugs for colour and flavour. Spread on toast. Just ensure that the following warning applies: DANGER!! CONSUMPTION OF THIS SUBSTANCE REQUIRES AS MUCH BEER AS POSSIBLE IN THE SHORTEST POSSIBLE PERIOD OF TIME TO FORGET WHAT YOU'VE JUST EATEN.

Oz Vegemite in Canader
The Loblaws here in Toronto sells it ... they get it from Australia but just put a new (Canadian?) label on it... just try peel off the label if you want to see if your have a rel product from Oz
Geez you guys ... poor Master Norm-man can't get a word in edgewise with all you yappers and can't get any simple answers to his simple questions ... (see what VEGEMITE does to people Norm? ) As regards Master Sunray ... just ignore him ... he doesn't know just how often he gets Vegemite and doesn't even know it. just thinks I'm a great cook |

Karman, Karman
Please tell me how in the hell we ever got tangled up in this web of vegemite? Were you the instigator? If so why could you not have simplified things and stuck to good old bully beef? The things that our army cooks could create with this gourmet delight would boggle the mind, and also the stomach. Please stop antagonizing those chaps down under. |

Tell you what... why don't you start a thread on WW2-era army cooking? God knows, you know more about THAT than anyone else here... I know I'll have something to say.... PS: In her defense, I have to say that antagonizing Aussies is great sport!
