As others have noted, I think the biggest mistake most Vegemite newbies make is using too much of it. I know, some people will say any amount is too much, but in reality a thin spread will suffice. The savoury taste is what gives it appeal, but even as an Ozzie I wouldn't layer it on too thick.

When Kraft tried to introduce the 21st century cheese/vegemite version, it bombed spectacularly. Did't help that they gave it a ridiculous name: "iSnack2.0" Some 20yo advertising guru probably got big bucks for coming up with that piece of rubbish. It sank without a trace within a month or two.

My favourite: Ryvita biscuit, butter, vegemite, lettuce and radish. Sounds gross, but tastes fantastic.

I love Marmite, which is the English equivalent.

When I found Vegemite in my local supermarket I bought a jar to try. I thought it was disgusting. I did not even like it in things such as gravy and threw it out.

Back to Marmite.

For those of us that like it try it with pasta - choose any pasta penne or the like - when cooked add butter / marg, vegemite and cheese - it is yummy (poor Uni student meal) that i continue to eat today ...

Many years ago, a company called Nabisco added a new flavour to their 'In a Biskit' range: Vegemite. People liked the usual flavours (chicken, cheese, bacon etc.) but the vegemite ones were REALLY popular, so you can imagine how disappointing it was when Nabisco stopped making them.

wwe84. I like those things individually (marmite rather than vegemite) but as a combination it does sound quite disgusting.
I have a thing about eating cheese and meat together anyway - the thought of it is not appealing, too much fat - too heavy in the stomach.

Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six-foot-four and full of muscles
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
