I am a certified (British) Vegemite fiend, I go out of my way to stock up from the supermarkets that carry it (it's tragic to see a whole metre of shelving, top to bottom, taken up with differently packaged marmite and its derivatives like marmite peanut butter, but not a single tray of vegemite).
However, as a child I went through a phase of eating Bovril on toast. Looking forward with not a little apprehension to "Adventures in making Bovril".
- jon_adler 3y agoThis Aussie expat is very thankful for our local Tesco always having Vegemite stock. They also stock Bundaberg Ginger Beer (try it if you haven’t, another Aussie favourite).
- BuildTheRobots 3y agoRoot beer is another one of those flavours you either love or hate, and Bundaberg's is particularly excellent. Sadly it's the only one I've found that contains liquorice, making all others seem lacking by comparison. Slightly surprised to find Bundaberg is actually drunk by Aussie's - cynical me always assumed it was marketing like Fosters. For people who like that sort of thing, it might be worth looking at Euthymol toothpaste. It tastes like a mix of root beer, jagermeister, germolene antiseptic and pink.
- caf 3y agoBundaberg would definitely be the most popular ginger beer brand in Australia, and their rum is so ubiquitous that you'll hear "bundy & coke" far more than the generic "rum & coke".

- bigger_cheese 3y agoYes Bundaberg Lemon Lime and Bitters is excellent. I believe they were originally an alcohol company Bundaberg Rum, is a relatively popular spirit.
