Aussie Digger threw down his rhymes on a stage already occupied by a man wearing a pink onesie and another flag-waving fellow dressed as a giant jar of vegemite. |
Walker ran an Australia-wide competition to officially name his spread, the winning name was Vegemite and in 1923 Vegemite first graced grocers shelves. |
I celebrated in style by having a vegemite and cheese sandwich before going to sleep early because I was that knackered. |
The majority of urban Australians eat commercially prepared cereal with pasteurised milk or yogurt and toast with preserves such as marmalade or vegemite for breakfast. |
As I spread Vegemite on my toast, Mum fills the jug and puts another mug out. |
It doesn't resemble the beautiful, tangy, salty gloriousness of Vegemite spread on hot-buttered toast, instead it tastes like licking a plate where Vegemite was smeared, many months ago, then left in the sink to fester. |
