You heard right Damelon.....I can always send you over a sample of it if you are keen to try it....It would cost me about a quarter of what you would pay for a jar. And they are only little samples so if you taste and dont like, its not a great waste. Pm me if interested.......I'm already sending over samples of Aussie foods to another friend living in Mississippi.Damelon wrote:I was looking for vegemite online. At $11 for a 455g jar, it's a bit expensive to try on a lark over here. I've heard that it has a overly yeasty taste.

Infelice, I may take you up on that. I'll however, for now, keep an eye out for it around here. I see vegemite is made by Kraft - a company headquartered in Chicago.
I came across an interesting website for Aussies in the U.S. about our food differences www.uq.net.au/~zzdonsi/food.html

Have you Ozlanders ever had a fudge round?
I'm not sure if its only distributed in North America, but it may be the single greatest snack food EVER. Wait no maybes, it is the greatest ever.

If you live in the US or Canada you must've seen a Fudge Round before. Its so good I can't do it justice with simple words. Go to the grocery store and find the section with Little Debbie products and you will find fudge rounds.

Actually VS, I ahave a nice little gift box made up of Vegemite (or Vegicrap as he likes to call it), Milo, Tim Tams ( large family sized pack for whole family) and Lamingtons..the commercial ones that will stay fresher ( but they are not a patch on home made ones). Accompanying said gift box is a letter of instructions on different ways to enjoy these Aussie treats......including detailed instructions on how to enjoy the Tim Tam Slam.variol son wrote:ummmm, vegemite on hot, buttered toast.

Kin.... Parcel is on the way!!!!!
Damelon....PM me the necessary details and I'll take care of it for ya. No need to trade, not unless you can think of something that I might particularly like.
Biff....Vegemite is one of the richest sources of Vitaman B complex. I'm not sure if that has a direct influence on libidoes.

Infelice, I sent your stuff out too. It'll probably be awhile but don't worry they make a nice suprise when you get them.

ive eaten vegemite most of life & if it has affected my lidido, it has been in a very odd way, since my libido is like a rollercoaster. this month is a 'i couldnt care less if sex was outlawed & punishable by death' month.
