'You should be ashamed' American woman says Vegemite is racist - because it's black!

a reply to: Murgatroid

I think it's a byproduct of beer production ,
(or maybe oozes out of rocks)
so there's enough to liberally coat the planet .
Also makes a great boot polish ...
If that woman is a comedian , I hope she has a day job !

Yea it's just not invogue, to be white English anglosaxon, but I make no excuses nor apologies for my ancestors I am proud of where we came from, and that's that as far as I am concerned

Double forgive me

LOL- if indeed this is as you say, I will graciously accept the curve-ball and cop it on the chin. Piss-take away crazy cat, offence shall not be taken.

Apparently, my BS detector needs re-calibrating , I did not pick her as a comedian. If she is attempting to take the piss out of the political-correction crowd with these videos, her comedic prowess also needs re-calibrating.

Marmite or vegemite NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bovril all the way

Love it on toast - they have even brought a chicken version now (salty but tasty) rather than just the original beef flavour.

I believe they used to sell it in canada, my mother used to buy it. I don't think she'd have imported it from the uk though.

why is a mildly amusing satirist being discussed on the social issues board verses humor?

not really the best imo. one of the best satirist on the net for social justice parody was a twitter handle from a pro comedian who went under the name Godfrey Elfwick. he actually got interviewed by the BBC who thought he was being real

there are tons of social justice satirists popping out of the woodwork. with news coming out of the campus daily of extreme censorship and "safe spaces", its a easy target, and a calling for people to make fun of the triggered generation

oh, and Vegemite/Marmite tastes basically like a wild ape's rectal cavity..but without the occasional redeeming quality of said cavity.

Poes law strikes again.

not to worry, the crazy out there are pretty damn close
Wait till you find a fairly well known woman in tech named Shanley who screams sexism over everything (to include how things in tech are named, like slave, dongle, etc)

a reply to: awareness10

Ah okay, then maybe it is kicking around here somewhere and I've just never noticed it. I'm assuming it's probably in the same aisle with peanut butter, jams, and other spreads ?

If it has a nice salty kick to it, I may end up inhaling the stuff through a straw.

a reply to: TechniXcality

Yes as all races should have the dignity to be happy from whence they came.

I'm proud of my Japanese heritage, said the Japanese man.
I'm proud of my Black African heritage, said the Black African.
I'm proud of my Jewish heritage, said the Jew.
I'm proud of my European heritage, said the racist.

I can't quote this enough.

People are turning into pansies.

If i come across any info on it i'll post it here, i wouldn't mind buying some as well!

Good on you, I'm proud of my English ancestors # everyone else, who wants to say that's racist, and those who won't stand up and puts others down for their ancestors well I say, # them and the horse they rode in on, pansies is right

a reply to: TechniXcality

I couldn't agree more. I know you've seen this quote before too but i'll add it in case someone tries to accuse us of being 'white' racists lol.

Preventing anyone from saying what's on their minds, won't
ever prevent them from feeling what's in their hearts. People
need to feel free to say what they want to, without the fear of
being accused of racism or bigotry.
Things we wont say about race that are true - unknown

canadian cider is the best!

But if I buy a jar and it ends up tasting like crap, I'm blaming Sublimecraft for bringing up the subject and getting the thought in my head... I may even toss him a message in a bottle demanding my damn money back.

... or a case of beer, whichever is cheaper (I'm not fussy).

Vegemite is a more solid and less alcoholic type of beer, and it's like a can of toughen-the-f###-up....it's not for everyone "straight away".......like oysters, it is an acquired taste because it is potent. My wife uses it to stock for stews (I am salivating) and she mixes both Guinness and Vegemite to make the best Irish stew this side of the flat earth.

Anyway, my children crave it and I'm sure all Aussies on ATS will attest to it's awesomeness, if not, they are fake Aussies.

That second video girl is correct. She should have been left at the bottom in the water. I imagine she will be suing someone and every one.

a reply to: CranialSponge

Well that's a big relief...

I was beginning to wonder if maybe this was a clever troll thread and Vegemite is really some kind of plant food or insecticide.

Either that or everyone in the thread lives in Australia or is just too embarrassed to admit that like me, they don't know what the heck Vegemite is.

I'm still in the dark about that 'strong Umami taste' though...

a reply to: Murgatroid

It's real brother and the best way I can describe it: is a beef stock cube, crushed up with just enough water to make it into a paste the same consistency as butter - then add a subtle yeast flavour to that and presto - you have Vegemite.

See Strewths post at the top of page 2 because, I agree, spreading it over potatoes then roasting them gives an amazing crust on the potato that when you eat them with in a roast with gravy - it is just divine.
