From the diary of a Thai student, published in the Bangkok Post: "Also, they have some strange food they call vegemite. This one is very Australian. It looks like chocolate but the taste is completely different. It's very salty. I'm very sure if you have to try it, you would say that it's yuck. But for me I do love it so much. I have it every morning. So, I guess I am becoming more Australian every day!" http://www.bangkokpost.com/education/site2003/grfb2503.htm Asians are warming to the Black Ambrosia.

Marmite and tea out of a teapot define being British! If you don't like marmite you are a lost cause AND if you can't taste the difference between it and the inferior vegemite you have lost some tastebuds somewhere along the way! By the way, my dad grew up where they made marmite - it is the byproduct of the English Bass's beer brewing industry.

They have probably tried to copy it, and then claim it as their own.......Auzzie ingenuity at work I guess.
