The Vegemite Experiment...

Hello, my lovelies!  Two days have now passed since I suggested to you all that we embark on a journey of intellectual discovery ... otherwise known as me sending Vegemite to unsuspecting people from overseas so we can all enjoy their reactions!

Well, everyone needs a hobby.

I've gone through the names of those of you who expressed an interest in joining in, and after a very official selection process which involved a sheet of paper, a sharpie, a pair of safety scissors and a hat, I'm happy to announce that the following bloggers are the lucky guinea pigs ... I mean winners!

Well, we'll see if they still see themselves as winners after they've tasted it.

Now, as a veteran Vegemite diner, I should probably give you three a few tips on the best way to eat Vegemite.  I tend to eat it either on toast with margarine, or fresh bread without margarine.  You'll want to spread it evenly, but not too thick.  That's a rookie mistake.  You can, if you insist, eat it on crackers, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Hopefully you'll all share your experience with us (after all, that's the point of all this), and if you want to include photos or even a video, none of us will protest!

Okay then, if the three of you would be so kind as to send me your postal addresses to delightfullyludicrous@gmail.com, I'll get this Vegemite sent off to you!

Thank you, you brave souls!  We all appreciate the sacrifice you're making.

  1. I am so going to video tape my experiment. But after I cringe eating it on toast (as I'm almost certain I'll do) I'm going to make a recipe with it. I just saw on Australia's Master Chef, a challenge involving vegemite and it inspired me. These were supposedly really tasty: http://www.masterchef.com.au/recipes/vegemite-and-white-chocolate-macarons.htm
