What is vegemite?

It is an utterly vile paste that, for some unfathomable reason, people in Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland, and perhaps a few other places, spread on crackers and such. It is said to be vegetable matter, but don't think that means yummy (cf. pickles, for example). Not for an instant think yummy. It you see a product called Vegemite, Promite, or Marmite, run--don't walk--to a different aisle. Who knows? Maybe you'll find some lefse there. (Now, Michelle, don't get any ideas about defiling lefse with the V product...!)

Sorry, I had tears of laughter reading this. It's kind of how at lot of Australians view it too. My kids hate the stuff.
I love it. It is a great daily source of vitamin B and folate.
It's made from yeast, malt and probably too much salt. It's kind of made from beer products.

I did have a Phil type question "what is lefse?" but I googled it and yes, vegemite would spread very nicely on lefse
