It must be a southern thing ---- we'll eat pretty much anything. I've never tried vegemite, but most people describe it as tasting like bouillon cubes ---- that doesn't sound bad to me.
@jaegerhund That's not far off the mark...that it tastes like bouillon. Whether we'll eat ANYTHING depends on your definition of 'anything' though!
The mistake people make with it is that they smear it on the way we'd smear on peanut butter...and expect it to taste like chocolate or Nutella or something. It's not sweet at all (which is why I like it), and that much is way TOO much. I suggest using it like hotsauce...if you're new to it just use a dab and see how it goes!
@RedneckCasanova "Anything" is an exaggeration . I was just picking on myself (ourselves) :) I can't tolerate much of anything sweet anymore so I might be more inclined to like this Aussie food. Anyway, nice respectful video ---take it easy.
Mate thats awesome that you like it! I bloody love it! The mistake people make when trying it is putting it on too thick! But then again some love it thick. I think we should export more and more :D
It's actually made from brewers yeast (beer leftovers and sweepings off the floor). We are a bunch of boozers down here, not only do we drink beer but we have discovered a way to eat it. Your mum has good taste.
Yeah, I think she does...and this was truly a blind test since she'd never tried it and didn't pretend to like it because I told her to, not that she would have! Kinda hard to FAKE liking Vegemite!
hahaha i liked the look on her face as you was makin it. it was priceless... now do ya realize your gonna have to start orderin even more at one time and sending it to ya momma hahahaha
I'm having a WONDERFUL time, thanks! I just wish you and some of the other new friends I met at SouthTube could come hang out on the porch with me n' the Casanova family!
I gotta admit it gets a little boring sometimes...but boring in a GOOD way! Take care, Matt
You fed our mother Vegemite?!?!?! Are you nuts??? Well, she is pretty adventurous when it comes to food, so I shouldn't be surprised... this is the same woman who taught me to eat pickled herring straight out of the jar... Now I AM surprised that Daddy tried it, however!
Well thanks! I've been passing along all the nice things people have been saying about her...though I'm not sure I'm ready to break the news to her that the vid has some honors attached to it! I don't pay attention to that stuff much, but she'd be mortified! ;-)
I'm having a blast...and just FYI I've had some nice comments on our videos of Katjusha, Ieva's Polka, and Staines Morris...particularly Staines since a British fellow who likes that kind of music told me how much he liked our version!
Yeah, I now show up at 7:xx, which is anywhere during the hour that we agreed to meet up. I really am trying! I know, my place is a temporal vortex, and I just live there.
I have to say it IS a bit unusual at first, but it's really no worse than other things we eat all the time over here. Soy sauce comes to mind as something with a somewhat similar taste...so don't mistake it for chocolate sauce!
I tried Vegemite about 2 years ago. It is NOT for me (lol)....Truly, I am SHOCKED that your mom did not FREAK OUT....Congratulations to you for introducing your mom to something new...successfully...WOW, Vegemite....
Aww thanks...and Linda says hi! I think it's just like deer meat...if you KNOW what to expect and it's fixed by somebody who knows what they're doing you STILL might not LIKE it but you probably won't HATE it!
Oh, and I'll be posting some shots of the house pretty soon.
I think she nailed it later on after filming this when she said it's kind of like a fairly potent soy sauce and we sell LOTS of that in the States. Still, I'm sure I smear it on MUCH thinner than some Ozzies!
What? I thought Vegemite was illegal in the states...or at least Tennesee! You must have a blackmarket source! Well, at least your mom has laid to rest the ugly rumors we've all been lead to believe about the stuff tasting so bad!
It's still NOT to everyone's taste, but hell if you can eat soy sauce you can eat Vegemite...it's just thicker! But most people try to spread it too thick and eat it by itself on a cracker or something...BAD idea! Use LOTS of butter or cheese and a TINY amount of Vegemite!
I'm Not Sure If That's Grammaticly Correct. If It Isn't Could Someone Correct Me. I'm French Canadian And I'm Not Good At Spelling. (Or Grammar LOL) I Like To Lear From My Mistakes So Could Someone Let Me Know?
Your grammar and spelling seem just fine by internet standards, though you could save yourself a few keystrokes by not capitalizing every word. No big deal...just more work than you need to put forth! :-)
It's a concentrated yeast extract that's a bi-product of the beer brewing process. It's very salty and has a flavor somewhere between beef bouillon and soy sauce and a texture sort of like drywall joint compound but it's dark brown and FULL of B-complex vitamins so it's an excellent hangover remedy!
MommaCasanova it so pretty, and totally cool! She's brave, I hear you're not supposed to smell it before you eat it, and she did both (enjoying the vegemite to boot)! Maybe it does run in your genes!!
Loved her kitchen too, she's even got a collection of Iron skillets!! That tells me she totally knows how to cook!!! *hugs* Angie

Nice to meet Momma Casanova, bless her little heart being so willing to try Vegemite on camera. I wonder if it is in the genes?
