It started 2006 when I told my then teamleader there is Vegemite-ice-cream in Perth (yuck?!).
He ordered Vegemite via Amazon. Awful, we thought it ran bad on the way to Germany.
Tried it in Perth - yuck!
With cheese - yuck.
At friends - yuck.
And don´t start about Marmite!
I got this on the Indian Pacific - they had no toast (I didn´t want to ask and make trouble)....
Anyways... Ingo got toast, we had butter and some say I am stubborn... I gave Vegemite another try.
Guess what!!! I LIKED it!!! Is it (old) age, is it.... I don´t know what - 2 more tries but so far I bite my butt I did not try in Perth and brought some home, cause: Healthy!!!
How on Earth come I suddenly like Vegemite?????
... he gave him a vegemite sanwich.
Now, whom to end with, Eagle, Swan or.... as this was in our kitchen in Braunschweig, finally...

How about you, yay or nay and any explanation why I suddenly like it?
Do you have something similar if not from GB/Australia?

People say yo9u either love or hate vegemite. I've never been anywhere they sold it. I read somewhere, people's food preferences change every seven years. Not sure how true it is. Glad to know it's healthy for you.
My seven years are slow then ;-)
Yet - a good explanation anyways! Next time I´m there... if today´s try covers the last!
People's taste does change over the years, I used to never eat olives at all and now I love black olives sliced on a pizza or in a salad and on a sandwich too.
I always loved olives! Jamie Oliver advises to buy the ones with pip - I always... nearly always do :-)
Not a fan of Vegemite. I always thought you had to grow up with it to like it, which wasn't the case with me. In South Africa we had Marmite, I didn't like it either.
Yes, exactly!!! That´s why I wonder why I like it now! Crazy, huh?
Isn't there a German equivalent - some yeast product (Malz-Bierhefe-Irgendetwas). At least I remember something like it from a visit to Bayern and Austria long ago. I did NOT like it, and as my tastebuds insist on being as childish as ever, I doubt I would now ;)
...Henry, you look delicious.
Glad you enjoyed vegemite this time! -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
I knew I had tried vegemite, it seems our grocery store sells it as 'marmite' according to an old blog post I made. I didn't like it.

Charlotte, no idea - but if I can wait for Perth or order online. Here in Northern Germany I have no idea if/what to pick.
This way it stays special (or I order online!)

Tom, thank you, please don´t eat me ;-)

Christine, Marmite is Great Britain, I by accident started a huge discussion about both products at Maccas 2006 between both groups ;-)
Crazy I like it now!
Sorry,Iris. Vegemite tastes like axel grease. Hard pass.
LOL. Crazy I like it suddenly!
I tried marmite in England and did not like it at all so won't try it again for a long time.
Love Henry today, Iris.
RedPat, yes, I was astonished, too!
Never tried it, but always been curious about it's taste. Fun video... been years since I've seen it!
I am not a vegemite fan. But honey, that's another story. I wonder how it compared to the honey in Greece which was amazing. Hope it was a great Thursday. hugs-Erika
Never heard of it, but I totally abhor Marmite! Maybe this would be better? Love that veggie Henry!
Spare Parts and Pics, the taste is hard to describe. You have to visit / order and taste it! Salty, a bit icky ;-)

Erika, the honey is to be tasted this weekend :-) I´ll let you know but reckon yours from Greece must be better - it looked so great, hugs!

Sue, I think Marmite might be more or less the same :-)
Henry says thank you!
