Default Vegemite Or Promite?

Hi

I've been eating Vegemite since I arrived in Oz recently and it's Ok ( I thought I had to eat it as a condition of the visa). However, I discovered Promite today and feel that it's far superior and I'm addicted now.

What do you lot think, and will they refuse my citizenship if this gets out?

OooH I had better get a jar of it!
Has you seen the Marmite ad on TV in the UK at the moment?

(I had to explain it to my wife, she'd never heard of it!)

Hiya,

The new ad is based on the "blob" it breaks out of a supermarket and rolls along the street sending people running, when one lady realises what it is and then runs up to it & dives in!!!
This followed by half of them jumping in & the other half looking on!

Either love it or hate it!

Bye
Mark

Agreed. However, one of our twins loves it, the other hates it.
