I've seen it on and off at Hannam market and Jell Deli. Personally I can't do the vegimite/marmite. But happy shopping to those who can. Laughing

The only think that stopped me buying up a huge ass amount was the fact that none of the jars in any of the supermarkets i went to, lasted beyond nov this year. I love my vegiemite, but i aint gonna eat it rancid.

I hear you Denz - promite is just wrong.

No, it's ok. Vegemite has a half-life of 25,000 years.

It's rancid from the point of it's creation..

if you weren't fooled/weened into thinking it was actually good growing up then you just cant stand it...

it is more than just simply an acquired taste.. you have to slowly numb your taste buds over the years so that you don't know any better...
