Paul and Jeff, you are both right..
Yes “we love our Vegemite, we all adore our Vegemite, it puts a rose in every cheek” as an advertising jingle from the sixties went.
We do try it in weird and wonderful ways, often with tongue firmly in cheek and it is certainly an acquired taste. Sticky black stuff probably looks pretty weird for a start If you didn’t grow up with it.
And I wonder if people try it in larger quantity than desirable. It should not be slathered on, a smear is a good way to start and progressing to a teaspoon or two at most per slice of buttered toast, unlike PB which CAN be slathered thickly
One of my colleagues put Vegemite and avocado on a chicken schnitzel, his family were less than impressed. However v@a on toast is a winner, particularly if you enjoy a simple savoury breakfast.
I got roses in my cheeks and veggie on my toast.
