  • i wanted to call it bum pirate 

  • It tastes like shit...who ever thinks this shit is nice needs some fuckin taste budds!

  • funny enough while i was watching i was eating toast with about a kilo of vegemite on it lol

  • DUDE I wish we had bottled Red Bull!!

  • that's strange. you say stoopid AND stchupid.

  • Are you going to get paid for this? A rant like this, where you say the name over and over over over, people are going to certainly remember the name. As bad as you say it is, they are going to want to try it and see for themselves! But I am sure that was your intention. What is the next promotion going to be???

  • I LOVE VEGEMITE!!!!

  • ... i thought you were 'Yahtzee'...

    besides that...

    lol at the RedBull thing, besides that, the only thing i remember about the iSnack is having a seizure, the local priest throwing a brick at his TV and my mother exploding after hearing the name.

    But your concept is stupid, if people catch Rudd snorting cocaine off Bin Laden's ass cheek with burning hundred dollar bills, hell yeah, it's going to be talked about, but no one is going to vote for him anymore will they!? (... will they?)

  • Wat is vegimite ??????

  • they should have called it vegemild

  • they litterally took it off the shelves no more than a week after its release due to the bad press, thus proving it wasn't a marketing scheme at all. kind of ironic as had they kept the original name it would have probably sold alot more. their calling it "vegemite cheesybite" now which in my opinion isnt a whole lot better.

  • well it is kind of a vegefail, as apple would never allow some other company to use a lower case"i" in front of the preceding word no one cares about , because the 'i' is EPiC! But wtf was 2.0 about? So Vegemite, leave the 'i' to apple, they create the best 'i' products, and can give there products the most ridiculous names (a sanitary napkin to be precise) and still make the product go on the birthday and christmas lists around the world.

  • The main ingredient in red bull was originally from the lining of a bull's stomach.

  • @stratty23 like rennet from a calf's stomach?

  • @oFADINGLIGHTSo, Kinda. It's called taurine, which makes sense, considering taur- is the greek root for bull.

  • I agree, love it, hate it. People were buzzing about it, people knew the item, their job is complete.

  • what the "frak" is vegemite anyway

  • if it was smart marketing then y change it?

  • people saying i snack 2.0 is a fail?

    youre talking about it - therefore good branding.

    people fail , blunty win

  • i personally would of called it creamymite or cheesymite :D ...cuz they put cream cheese in it thts she only diff

  • shit red bull come in class bottles that is awsome

  • they should have called it jacko-mite because it was originally black and it is getting whiter

  • @shazam298 lol!

  • I think it was smart they named it iSnack2.0 because people think it's so stupid, they laugh about it with all their friends which is spreading the word for "vegemite".

  • Anchovies and Vegemite both taste like SHIIIIIIIIIT! :)

  • Who said anything about taurine being extracted from a bull?

  • ya its smart marketing and isnack dosent seem like a food name

  • umm blunty the name isnt necessarily stupid its just sounds silly and people like a catchy name i snack just just sounds stupid even if you remember for example an energy drink "monster" it sounds cool and has a cool simble

  • why do you pronounce "stupid" like "stoopid"?

    and you claim to be australian, psh :P

    + also no one is buying it because its just that dumb. everyone knowing what it is doesnt = sales.

  • i like vegimite.......

  • Red Bull has Taurine in it. Which is a form of energy which is why they named it Red Bull xD

  • Good pont. It's still a dumb name,though.

  • Comment removed

  • I love VEGEMITE!!

  • I totally agree w/ u!!!!

    EVERYONE knows the name now, and the people I know who've tried it say it's great!!

  • ha ha great vid

  • Thats a nice rant

  • MARMITE !!

    *stupid australians and americans*

    well thats how brithish say it

  • lol, i agree with you 100% man, but i thought it was a bit silly when you starting getting into it and getting a bit loud, then you say calm down to other people O_o

  • I think the product itself is stupid... I love vegemite with cheese. but i would never buy them both in a mix together...

  • why is the label crooked, have you tampered with it....

    I agree it is a stupid name and it tastes as bad

    do you think apple had anything to do with the name

  • ive never heard of it

  • um k

  • GOOD ON YA Hatman!! I reckon they should have called it VEGESHITE, cos` it tatses like FUCKING SHIT!!!

  • thx now the world will one day know this & I cant trick them I was going to because know one knew this but now they do

  • there is an argument about the london 2012 symbol. everyone hates it

  • RedBull actually has Taurine in it. As in Taurus, the Bull. That's why it's called RedBull.

  • And taurine, is in fact, an extract from bull piss.

  • so you are saying that... i was drinking... bullpis?

  • An extract from bull piss, yes.

  • How many times do I have to say this. Red Bull does NOT contain any bull piss, sperm or EXTRACT from piss or sperm. Red Bull and bull urine DO contain taurine, but they don't co-mingle. They don't take it from bulls and put it in...can you imagine the process of that? Besides sanitation...*Sigh*.

    /facepalm

  • It wasn't stuck in my head till now after I watched this video

  • Huh,

    I have your hat.

  • My chemistry professor in the USA makes his own beer at home and he was saying that vegemite is the stuff that settles at the bottom when you make beer.

  • Comment removed

  • I like vegemite toast some bread put on some butter and about 1/2 tesp of the salty stuff.

  • yak!!! ahhhh!!! (vegishit) it should be called. And i agree with dis guy oh and this shit is just nasty the last time i tasted it when i was at camping then vegimite (aka) (i snack 2.0 ) wrecked my camping when i tasted it then i vomited (some shit stuff)

  • i love marmite! you either love it or you hate it. there's no imbetween. yes, it tastes bad, but in a good way. it's hard to explain.

  • Red bull gives you wings...not as the bull has wings but gives the feeling that you have wings because of the energy it gives. o_o;;

  • I hadn't heard about it until you decided to promote it in this video.

  • 2:18 this guy is channeling murray from FOTC

  • i once ate vegimite and shit green for a week :(

  • So dose the product taste like shit? Could you do a review on the product?

  • this guy makes a good point, it is a horrible name but also very clever, it got its publicity alright and its stuck on peoples minds...also i just realized that "red bull" is also a very shit name but it never occurred to me how bad the name really is.

  • ''iSnack Suck My Dick''.....Oh and 2.0

  • hell yeah, ive never seen a bottle or red bull...just cans...

  • and u did it for free ;) u should pf charged for it XD

  • i understand what your saying, its ture, every aspect of it but vegemite isnt an apple product, therefore shouldn't have an "i" infront of its name.

  • this is totally AWESOME

  • Hahaha, you're a champ mate :) Nice perspective.

  • ok you make a valid point.....but should have been called cheesewax :P

  • red bull makes sense..a bull goes nuts when it sees the colour red and red bull gives you lots of energy.

  • wtf is vegemite

  • It's a spread practically made from yeast extract and salt.

  • a super awsome spread eaten by aussies because its freaken awsome.

  • It's stupid because it's a spread! All stuff starting with "i" is usually technology!

  • I dont think bull milk would be a very popular sell outside of cattle breeding.. As for Vegemite, you have to admit its a better name than Yeast Extract Spread! Although I guess you could campaign it as YES! Anyways the Ol Vege has one good use, if you ever have a roast turn out a little to bland you can always give it a good Vegemite basting and another five in the oven.. delicious! Thanks for the heads up on iSnack.

  • im gonna be honest its actually a smart name and bluntys right its definitely a name people will remember will remember and when you think about it alot of companies nd products have dumb names

  • wow...

  • um actually its called red bull coz it has taurine which is a stimulant u kno tauro is bull in spanish ergo blunty is dumbshit

  • im aussie u cant here my accent and i hate vegimite most of my mates do as it well

  • And ironically, by complaining, they're selling iSnack far better than anything else. People get excited over such retarded stuff, like the whole Megan Fox missing that boy with the flowers - who even really gives a damn at the end of the day? They don't like this product, they're not going to get it anyway. Someone's starving or being shot at, and all that gets anyone angry is a stupid brand name. What a waste of good rage.

  • but Blunty your English, not Australian

  • He speaks English but he is defintly Australian- And if your going to argue back i'm Australian and proud.

  • But if he is Austrailan, why isnt he speaking Australian? they dont speak English. na im only messing with ya

  • stupid American!! haha JK

  • hey that was good and i hope that it will get people to shut up about something that no one eats accept for snotty nosed kids.

    p.s u should make another masterchief video that is funny as.

  • by congratulating a company for accepting a stupid name you're suggesting that any company can name their product any old shit and through it being stupid, they are genius' because some hype has been generated. i doubt any of this was intentional on kraft's part.

  • HOLY FUCK :O I WANT A GLASS BOTTLE RED BULL :O

    cant you get them in the uk?

    all i ever see are the tall cans

  • call it frank lol that a good 1

  • Red Bull is obviously a reference to Bulls being "enraged" by the color red. (as in this drink will get you pumped up when you drink it)

  • i would never had of thought of that nice work!

  • lol good way to advertise a product that you hate

  • i feel sorry for that guy who came up with it....must be soooooo dejected

  • i personally think 'crackermite' was the better option

    LMFAO

  • Get off of your high horse. You thought this name was dumb just like everybody else. The only reason you are making this video is because you like to think you are smarter and more clever than everybody else. The point was that vegemite was a notworthy name for that product "iSnack 2.0" is a pathetic name and discraces the vegemite icon. You need to stop calling everybody else stupid. I remember when you made a a V-Water video and made fun up the blue cape calling it "gay". Judgemental much?

  • Bit like how HP sauce isn't made in the UK any more or Fosters which is advertised as Australian, but if in fact brewed in the EU.

    Keep up the good work.

  • It is not that fucking bad. the others all sound like sexual innuendo. Blunty is right, he is a legend.

    All of you who wailed on it R idiots

    And he is right, Vegemite is discusting

  • Just because people talk about it doesn't mean they'll be more likely to try it. You could have named it "Whale Urine" and everyone would still be talking about it- would anyone buy it?

  • Well I'm an Aussie, and if you are an Aussie then stop saying "STOOPID" like an American. Instead of STUPID like true Aussies do. STUPID!!

  • well people can say it the way they can what ever they are Aussie or american seriously your stupid he can say it the way he wants to

  • yes! thank you! thats all i was thinking the whole time, it was really distracting.

  • Do they even sell vegimite outside australia?

  • Frank name should've won..

  • Never heard of isnack until now. Don't care. I am immune to advertising. There are numerous products I refuse to buy simply because I find their advertising annoying. I don't even buy products I like. My wallet wears the financial equivalent of a chastity belt.

  • if your immune to advertising you wouldnt buy anything. only essentials

  • its like marmite

  • i totally agree with everything except red bull is named after an ingredient in it so it kinda does give information about it

  • I guess the marketing people were trying to break new ground. Seriously who would release a product for the whole public to try and then give it a ridiculous name basically driving the majority of those consumers away from it. Was ipod, imac, redbull etc released to the public for consumption with no name? Probably to small "control groups". I guess that makes the whole of australia one huge control group. Something for the rest of the marketing world to learn from. Marketing to Marketers? FAIL.

  • lol "Frank"

  • you say remembered like an american

  • i think red bull makes sense.

    it's an energy drink, bulls are ferocious animals and red is supposed to make them rage, right. so they are trying to say that it gives you the energy of a raging bull.

    as for "it gives you wings" i got nothing lol.

  • it gives you wings like an angel a.k.a it will kill you

  • Nah the bulls are because it contains bull sperm concentrate.... that is where the energy comes from.

    ;-)

  • My dad took a business trip to Australia and brought back a jar of Vegiemite for us to try. My SIXTY THREE year old uncle said it was the worst thing he's ever put in his mouth. The stuff is poison.

  • Hey I found a poem: We're happy little Vegemites As bright as bright can be. We all enjoy our Vegemite For breakfast, lunch and tea. Our Mummies say we're growing stronger Every single week Because we LOVE our Vegemite. We all ADORE our Vegemite. IT PUTS A ROSE IN EVERY CHEEK! We're growing stronger every week!
  • ah good ol' vegemite ad from i think the 60's

  • I've never ever heard of vegemite. Hmmm... I'll go and look it up on wikipedia...

  • Right on Nate!

    (I also never liked Vegemite bahaha, some aussies we are :P)

  • I truely agree

  • god Vegemite  is good

  • what a rediculus name i a hate veggie mite love marmite though

  • i can tel your accent because im british

  • Vegemite gives me the diarrhea

  • You are going to die INCREDIBLY young due to your incurable AUSSIE-RAGE!

  • Yeah, I've tried an Irish brand of that stuff, myself, and I have to say, it gives the toast a nice zing, if you're careful and put just the right amount on, however, I left it in my fridge for like 2 years and then spread it on something else, and it tastes exactly the same. My point being that the food either keeps for an extremely long time or simply the fact that it's got the texture of tank grease and it tastes the same weather rotten or fresh.

  • my god vegemite is soooo good :) I don't like the new one though

  • pretty sure my entry 'mitey cheese' should have won

  • Woah I like that bottle!

  • actually redbull's catch phrase is "revitalizes body and mind" now

  • I also hate Vegemite. And iSnack 2.0 I mean wtf. And also it tastes like shit.

  • I don't think it's that dumb...

  • uhhh.... well you kinda shifted from the quality to the name/marketing... HOW DOES IT TASTE O.o

  • Guess what!!! they have agreed to get rid of the new name. thank god

  • Dude id never thought about that before but your damn right, it is doing tis fuckin job

  • this is the first time I have ever heard of the stuff..lol

  • It may be great branding, we may all be talking about it...but are any of us ACTUALLY going to buy it? And isnt that the whole point?

  • if it's called isnack 2.0 why don't they call the original vegimite isnack

  • yeah we have something similar in the U.K. called Marmite.. it's crap! LOL

  • LOL iSuck 2.0

  • ha, ive had people call me australian over xbox live, ha, they're all like "go back to the outback you shit host," lol.

    and asda is owned by walmart.

    thats why chavs, go to iceland.

    ignore that...

    lol, loving your rants though blunty

  • birtan repopulate ur country u should be thankful

  • yep, I never knew about vegemite until you ranted about it. Good job.

    And I knew you were Austrailian form the get go! Go me.

  • Vegemite, Marmite, Bovril. So far I've liked every one I've tried. I like anchovies too. I like cheese too. Haven't tried Limburger yet, but its on the list.

    What do all the delicious foods have in common? Salty and savory (umami) . Good stuff. The best pizza in the world? A little marmite in the world. Cheddar cheese with a little blue and a signifivant portion of pamesan. topped with bell pepper onion, mushrooms, and anchovies. Heaven

  • Awesome i love you ranting

    600th rater

  • *Shudder* Vegemite was bad enough... ah well, at least you can listen to your music whilst tucking into a bit of recycled cra... I mean Vegemite! :P

  • "You arseholes just can't Shut up about it can ya?" The way you said it was freaking hilarious!

  • And then it got canned. It's not called that anymore. I think apple threatened to sue the crap out of them, lol.

  • Vegemite tastes like ass.

    Should be called assmite.

  • Have you tasted a** TheXmoose

  • Yeah man I love ass, especially your mums. But Vegemite is worse than ass.

    Promite is the only mite.

  • You aren't Scottish? ;)

  • good point.

  • Comment removed

  • You serious?

  • yeah im serious lol americans fucking hate vegemite

  • Kraft is an American company. Kraft bought Vegemite. Ipso Facto Vegemite is now owned by Americans

    Pretty sure they ran this whole campaign just for Australia because the Americans didn't want to offend us by naming it something bloody stupid.

    That my friend is what you call irony.

  • the reason its called red bull is because of the fact energy drinks used to contain taureine witch is foud in bulss stomachs

  • Nice Hat.

  • they're renaming it hahahahahahahaha

    contradicting much???

  • oh also, Bulls don't produce dairy products either. LOL

  • it's called Red Bull because it contains TAURINE. From wikipedia: "Taurine is named after the Latin taurus, which means bull or ox, as it was first isolated from ox bile in 1827 by German scientists"

  • ew ox bile. is ox bile urine coloured like red bull? or is it red...because that would give u even more to back ur statement

  • and probably RED because of the colour of guarana berries....so yea, blunty got owned haha.

    but its a stupid name and iReckon than im not gonna buy it

  • Comment removed

  • dude. did you like completely change your opinion or something. first you hate the name, then you love it and then you hate it again. dude you're giving us happy fun lovin' aussies a bad name. hahah chill out.

  • Comment removed

  • That's a great idea. :)

  • i think the name Red Bull originated partly from the raw power and energy of an angry (red) bull.

    makes sense along with what neomerlin said.

    iSnack is NOT a good marketing choice.. isn't the idea of marketing to get things to SELL, not to just get it a name that everyone is TALKING about?

  • ur a queer

  • yes, jobBLOWW.

    im sure you're straight as a dollar bill, and are just using that to hide your real feelings.

    Gay is not derogatory. so shut up, sphincter.

  • They should have called it Spreadjimite

    or Mellowmite..

    isnack is the gayest name ever .. who cares about marketing .. just cause people remember the crap name, doesn't mean they will buy it ... I liked the new vegemite .. but now i am not buying it.

  • Through all the chaos, I did in fact forget about reverse marketing, and was focused on the retarded name, I guess they indeed have won the battle, even if 80% of the people hate the name, 100% sure know about it! :P

  • Bahaha It dosnt taste any different in a bottle xD

  • for everyone freaking out about the red bull in the bottle: He lives in Australia... things are different there than some other places around the world.

  • Aussies have RedBull in bottles!?

    Wish I could find it like that in the States.

  • do u guys get XXL redbull cans?

  • nah i we just have regular

    whatever how much mLs that is

  • lol we get XXL cans which are double the size of normal cans :)
