that's what i was thinking..vegemite...and the Men at Work's "Down Under."

I tried a little of that stuff once and it's quite the peculiar substance for food.

I had a similar problem in Greece, when I was given evaporated milk to put in my coffee, which was gross. I've drunk my coffee black ever since.

I have no tea-related anecdote, I'm afraid. Sorry for going even more off-topic.

Rooibos tea with soya milk is very nice.

Has no-one ever told you that two wrongs don't make a right?

Soya milk is very nice, as is rice milk.

Kate says that rooibos tea tastes like graves.

Remind me to turn down any invite to afternoon tea that you ever give me *.

* Unless jelly and ice cream are involved, in which case I accept **.

** Unless it's soya ice cream, in which case I reject again.

Talking of horrible ice cream, have you tried Skinny Cow ice cream? It's the weirdest thing you'll ever taste, and absolutely nothing like ice cream. It's got a grainy texture and it's impossible to lick!

Jane is rather partial to Skinny Cow ice lollies. The minty ones.

She's welcome to them as far as I'm concerned. As I keep telling her, I'd rather be fat and happy.

Soy icecream is great. Well the So Good soy milk icecream is. Not sure if I've tried any other. But people who try my soy icecream love it. Alot of people can't tell the difference and the only difference I've heard is that it's richer in taste - I'd have to agree.

Marmite is significantly different. There is similarities but I love vegemite and think Marmite is foul and that seems to be the general consensus from us skips. Marmite is far more bitter in taste. I guess it's whatever you're brought up on.

As for why it's not vegan? I gave it up originally because it's made by Kraft and then I found out it can contain beef as 6 months of the year it's produced on the same machinery as the prduce of beef.

I'm happy with my Vege Spread.
