    I may be one of the very few Australians that doesn't like vegemite (sorry!). It is a spread (ingredients top secret and unknown - we do know it contains yeast and Vitamin B)that can be spread on bread or crackers, by itself or with cheese or honey. I know that many Japanese people have been fooled into thinking it tastes like chocolate because of its brown colour - don't be fooled! For more vegemite information go to http://www.vegemite.com.au/</a
