Hey guys. I'm looking for the Aussie product of Vegemite. It's a spread that the Aussie's put on bread, toast, etc. It's not like butter, as I think they put both on. It's owned by Kraft. Just wondering if anyone knows of any place in the metro area that sells it. Thanks! |

Traveling in a fried-out combie On a hippie trail, head full of zombie I met a strange lady, she made me nervous She took me in and gave me breakfast And she said, "Do you come from a land down under? Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover." Buying bread from a man in Brussels He was six foot four and full of muscles I said, "Do you speak-a my language?" He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich And he said, "I come from a land down under Where beer does flow and men chunder Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover." Lying in a den in Bombay With a slack jaw, and not much to say I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me Because I come from the land of plenty?" And he said, "Oh! Do you come from a land down under? (oh yeah yeah) Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover." |

Is Vegemite the same as Marmite? I bought a jar of that a few months ago at the Kroger's on Greenfield & Michigan Ave - I found it in the International Foods aisle. |

Ray, no that was alcohol as she got drunk off of it. My parents said the exact same thing! Marmite is the British/South African equivalent. |
