Vegemite is an iconic Australian food

 

 

 

Most Aussies love Vegemite, but for newcomers it can be polarizing. Some love it, and others don’t, the reactions from our students were priceless.

The Vegemite slogan, “tastes like Australia”

 

 

 

 

Vegemite is an acquired taste, it is salty with a subtle bitterness and an umami flavour reminiscent of an intense soy sauce.

Vegemite on toast is simply toasted white bread with butter and Vegemite.

The recommended ratio of vegemite and butter depends on who you ask. If you are a newcomer, try Vegemite in smaller doses first as the strong taste goes a long way.
