Vegemite update

As Archivalist noted, Vegemite is unspeakably bad. I find it amazing that it is still produced and regularly sold to anyone other than curious American tourists. I was also surprised to find that the label describes the product as 'concentrated yeast extract.' Not exactly a tantalizing line. I can only assume that this is descriptive or mandated by the government, as the possibility that 'yeast extract' is a selling point is just disturbing. It is the vegetarian equivalent of spam.

Just back from New Zealand. It was green and wet. More later.
