Well here I am eating the great Australian breakfast food! Vegemite toast! For those of you who have never heard of vegemite, it is a yeast extract paste that is supposed to taste like meat…it is very salty and Aunty Tenina LOVES it…but Sam’s mom Lori thinks it tastes like a mixture of vaseline and crunched up vitamin B pills and I have to agree with Lori! They eat it here like we eat Peanut Butter….on toast, on sandwiches, on crackers…YUCK! I am sending the class some to try out to see what you all think.
There is a television ad here for vegemite that you can all watch by clicking on the link.

It truly is an Australian icon! Anyway, I’ve had my vegemite for the day! Have you???
