High-end vegimite!
« on: February 21, 2007, 10:09:08 AM »
In limited quantities, only 300,000 jars!  I like the description "the flavor akin to earwax"  Seriously YUM!

Given the international flair of SOHC owners, the Marmite vs. Vegemite discussion has been about before, but sadly, I am unacquainted with the flavor of wax du ear.  I do know that when Marmite was introduced, it was advertised as "liquid beef."  Personally, if I were to be tortured, I think I would choose ear wax over liquid beef, but to each his own.

I have a leftover jar of Marmite if anyone wants it. Took one taste and damn near gagged. Had to eat 3 Vegemite sandwiches to remove the taste from my mouth! :P

It is.

Send me your address. It's past its "Best if used by" date of November 2006, but it's probably more of a "half-life" issue rather than a "shelf-life" issue...

Angels crapping on your tongue, my boy..... ;) :D

Tooo funny that it's from Guinness. I like my fine ales but the first drink I took of their Stout was ugly. I literally spit it in the car seat as the bottle was flung out the window. Instinctive reaction, luckily I didn't kill anyone.
