      That the spelling or grammar mistakes are there on purpose as generally they are being quoted from somebody else. Don't know what sic actually means though.

        This is Australia's addition to cuisine's of the world. The greatest thing known to man and especially good on toast for breakfast. Some wussy Australian's (Christian) and most of the rest of the world just don't have the balls to eat something as strong as this. Also it is made from the leftover goodness from the beer making process, good old Australian ingenuity, don't let anything go to waste.

          <Homer Simpson> Mmmm...left over beer sludge...sacrilicious... </Homer Simpson> I urge everyone to grab a jar of vegemite, toast some bread, spread a wee bit of butter, a good cover of that black, gooey Food of the Gods, add a couple of thin slices of tomato, sprinkle with a bit of black pepper, and enjoy. I then dare anybody to look me in the eye and tell me that isn't the best thing they have ever tasted. cheers, Chris Maunder (CodeProject)

            Sounds good! I like sardines in tomato sauce on toast, or coon and vegemite grilled, tomatos go ok with that.

                                          Must be an intelligence thing. Now the question is, is that environmental or genetic ? ;P Christian As I learn the innermost secrets of the around me, they reward me in many ways to keep quiet.

                                          I must agree with the high intelligence of the Vegemite eaters of the world. I would also say it's genetic and having a good Aussie surname.
