DCE: According to Wikipedia (so you know it's wrong):
Vegemite (IPA: /ˈvɛdʒɨmaɪt/) is a dark brown food paste made from yeast extract, used mainly as a spread on sandwiches, toast and cracker biscuits, as well as a filling of pastries like Cheesymite scroll, in Australia and New Zealand. It is similar to British and New Zealand Marmite and to Swiss Cenovis.
Black mold on yeast. Like I said: Yum.

There is some website (of course there is) where this, ahem, gentleman, actually tries out all of those crazy foods like Natto, etc...and posts a review if he is able to survive the encounter....I'll try to find it.

Actually.............very long pause....Marmite is quite good on vanilla ice cream...gives it a taste like pistacio....I guess it would just be tons simpler to just put some dang pistacios in your ice cream...but where is the fun in that?

AAP, I like durian. The smell isn't that bad, and it doesn't taste anything like it smells. It just smells a little overripe. The flavor is mild. The texture is wonderful, custardy and creamy. I love the sci-fi look of the outer shell, too.

that Julie London Calendar Girl album was a big part of our growing up. Not so much the music, but more the cover: "Look, the nurse from Emergency when she was way young!"
Wed. 10/29/08 4:34pm
From:
AnAnonymousParty
I think it may vary from variety or by person, maybe the ones I had were particularly 'overripe' ... but you can't deny people either love it or hate it. Good once you get past the aroma. But then I've experienced cheeses that could kick Durian's ass.

Country-western? More like country-plastic. As always, it's so over-over-over-overproduced! That Johnny Cash song that Ken played this morning, even though a remix, now that was real country. Yeah, I know, it goes without saying.
