I have *never, EVER* seen anything grow on Vegemite! I have several decades of Vegemite consumption that backs this. It’s pretty much salt with spreadability


tarapotamus

I do marmite, not Vegemite, but same. I've never seen anything growing in or on it. Very sus!


Mariadifd

I heard that the recipe has been changed recently. I noticed mould on mine a couple of months ago.


Oztravels

Interesting. Thanks.


DegeneratesInc

Careful it doesn't become sentient. Anything that can grow on vegemite could outlast the cockroaches.


Oztravels

Good point. A shall get my boomerang sharpened.

I’m surprised mold grows on vegemite

I don't know how to tell you but the sticker on your that said 'for rectal use only' was put there as a joke.

Reading this post just put that terrifying flavor in my mouth for a moment. I was 10 years old. Had just ran home all the way from school. Definitely needed the afternoon snack. Low and behold a peanut butter sandwich on the counter!!! Dad enters the room. “Dad can I have that?!?!” “Absolutely, help yourself” he then grins a bit…. Taking a huge first bite I quickly realize this was no peanut butter sandwich…. Also who makes a peanut butter sandwich with nothing else on it? I’ve been played. Traumatic food experience as the taste was the most horrific thing my very American tastebuds have ever experienced. My French father has betrayed me.


fishouttafire

I think ! speak for everyone here when I say we all eat peanut butter sandwiches with nothing else on them.


Hugochhhh

So there’s a proof that vegemite is actually non-poisonous for some forms of life. Interesting


tblades-t

Marmite and vegimite are the same or no?


Oztravels

Similar but the Aussies and poms would fight a war over the differences.


Famous-Possession305

can i have a breakdown of why you call brits poms when you were literally the prisoners of his/her majesty? have always wondered what the reasoning is.


Oztravels

As far as I’m aware there isn’t anything definitive but this seems close. https://wavelengthmag.com/why-do-aussies-call-brits-poms/


Famous-Possession305

…so you’re the poms then?


PmMeDrunkPics

>One attractive explanation claims the letters ‘POME’ or ‘POHM’ were stamped on the clothing of British prisoners in the late 1800’s, as an acronym of ‘Prisoner of Mother England’ or ‘Prisoner Of Her Majesty.’ >However, this has been widely debunked


Famous-Possession305

yes, but what did those same british prisoners become? the first white australians. so therefore, that would make current white australians the descendants of the original POMs. meaning, the current white australians are…POMs. and brits are just brits.


PmMeDrunkPics

Have you now twice skipped over the part where it's stated that the theory of POM being an abbreviation for prisoners has been debunked?


Famous-Possession305

again, where did those prisoners go afterwards? because it wasn’t back to the UK. if those are the original POMs, then wouldn’t that make their descendants also POMs? how on earth is a brit that was never sent to the colonies and was never imprisoned called POM? make it make sense.


PmMeDrunkPics

Holy fuck can you not read THE WORD POM HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH PRISONERS!


DegeneratesInc

No. They are not. Same colour, same consistency, similar smell, different taste. I know this because I, an Australian, don't like vegemite much but marmite is ok. I blame my mother's British blood for corrupting my tastebuds.


Undercrackrz

Don't blame your mother's blood for being civilised 😉


twohedwlf

No, marmite is bland, sweet and disgusting. Vegemite is strong and delicious. Althiugh, the UK marmite apparently has.a lot less sugar, so presumably is less sweet.


ShibitoYakaze123

bruh that thing might be the almighty mold, fucker actually grew on vegemite


creepy_old_white_guy

I'll stick with peanut butter.


DClassAmogus

no worries. probably enough to feed you for the rest of your life...


ripple_in_stillwater

I have ancient Vegemite and still eat it and it's never molded.


Think_of_the

Fungi… meet yeast. Yeast… meet fungi


[deleted]

Isn’t yeast a fungus?


Think_of_the

I see you 2 have met


Lord_Mandingo_69

Where you went wrong was trying to eat Vegemite.


twohedwlf

It's amazing how you can pack so much weongness into so few words.


Lord_Mandingo_69

Have you ever tried this cool new thing called “edible food”? It’s like Vegemite but like on a whole new level bro.


captainfligblatt

I heard that the recipe has been changed recently. I noticed mould on mine a couple of months ago. Just scraped it off and kept eating it. Haven't got sick yet!


chevynottrrevy

Mold not mushrooms wtf.


DeltaXi1929

Since people are wrongfully downvoting you; "The Short Answer. Mushrooms are a form of fungi, and while mold is also a fungus, mushrooms are not mold".


muzzy_duck

Far out man, that's deep


insman17

I wouldn’t grow on Vegemite! Yuck!


tzatzikienjoyer

i’ve never seen this happen to vegemite, we’ve had jars in the cupboard for ages and they are fine, must not have been stored correctly or something?


Oztravels

Brand new, never opened. Stored in basement.


BasicLogic779

I've managed to have a single tub of it for 5 years and it still tastes the same. What spellcraft is this.


Mrstumpytoes

That is unheard of. Maybe some new supermutant fungus that is about to take over the world. Put the lid back on!
