The Turn Around: Born and raised in Australia over fifty years ago. Hated Vegemite from day one. Tried it several times throughout my life and always hated it, Three months ago, though, I tried it again and guess what? I loved it. WTF. I've eaten two jars since and am on my third. Ain't life just full of surprises. Great video, well made, very informative and excellent intonation.

America: has a problem with sugar
Australia: has a problem with salt

As a Yank that lived in Aus in the 1980s, if an Aussie gave me too much grief for being a Yank, I'd say, "Yeah nah mate, ya know Vegemite is owned by Kraft, an American company?" Then I'd buy him a VB, and we'd be right.

For whatever reason when I was kid I thought it was made out of kangaroos lmao 😂

I have lived in Australia for last 10 years, I must say that Vegemite is an acquired taste. I recently started loving it after I tried it in a cheese scroll. I love Vegemite now it reminds me of beer and goes so good on a buttered toast.

Glad to see in the rest of the comments that I’m not the only American who enjoys Vegemite! I grew up with kind of snobby foodie parents who took me to a lot of restaurants of different cultures growing up, so I have an interesting palate and eat a lot of foods my friends think are super weird!

I love marmite. I grew up with it. I used to swim squad and we had morning sessions. After swimming you'd already be hungry before first session. So I'd go to the tuck shop and buy a couple half sliced hot dog buns which were toasted in one of those press toasters and smeered with butter and marmite. It used to be the best.

Bruh, I’m literally eating Vegemite on toast while watching this

I'm American and I have heard about vegemite for years and I am dying to try it. When I was a kid that song "land down under" had a lyric about it, I had no idea what they were talking about lol

MAN CANNOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE A LITTLE VEGEMITE WOULD BE NICE

For some reason this video refuses to play right sad cuz I wanted to learn more about this

[victorrock]

You convinced me! Great informative video! I will certainly order a jar of Vegemite as soon as possible (I actually intended this for quite some time), I swear! Men at Work brought me here, indirectly, of course! Australia is a very, very beautiful country with fantastic people! Much respect and all the best from Romania!

P.S.: 'I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich' - part of the lyrics of 'Down Under' (a great song) by Men at Work

Although Vegemite tastes like shit to me in the beginning, I fell in love with it in the forth year of living in New Zealand. And yes I've tried marmite but I still prefer vegemite

[lydiamarshall]

Great video, informative and to the point

In North America we call it maritime. And we use it in soups and stocking for seasoning
