Vegimite is the Nectar of the gods. Nearly every Aussie was raised with vegimite.

The only reason they learn Australian is so they can get a job as a telephone marketer or service centre

I had the (dis)honour of tasting vegimite this year on my Australian trip.

I think it must be like that rotten fish they eat up in norway/finland/sweden. You must have tasted it before your tastebuds have developed fully, otherwise its waaaay too late (yuck!).  "How to Talk to Australians" 261959  "How to Talk to Australians" 8157 

By the way, those videos are no end of funny, I sent them to my brother and all my Australian friends.

I'm glad you said nearly.  I hate the stuff, it's an acquired taste that I've never acquired.
