Yesterday I nearly cut my finger off cutting up tomatoes for a salad. And today my nephew, sister and the family flew away from me :( TWO BIG FROWNS! And Jayann went back to Missoula but hopefully she is coming back next week yayyyy!

BUT I went out to lunch with my mommy, and tonight we are having tacos (I am not allowed to cut tomatoes), there's a storm coming (STORMS YAY) and I bought my NZ housemates (and friends) Twinkies so they could try them and be like the people in the films. Eating gross things. I also got Butterfingers. I have a list. It makes me LOL silently.

Is feeding non-Americans Twinkies the equivalent of feeding Americans Vegemite? (I did that when I went to the States a few years ago. It was hilarious.)

Vegemite!

It's an Australian sandwich spread made from yeast extract. Very popular here in Oz, but most non-Aussies think it's disgusting.

Awww, memories!

We're happy little Vegemites as bright as bright can be! We all enjoy our vegemite for breakfast, lunch and tea!

I don't know why everybody wastes their time arguing over Advance Australia Fair and Waltzing Matilda. Clearly we have national anthem material right here!

(No, really, can't you picture it? The Aussie athlete steps up to the podium to receive the gold, the music swells and a thousand Australian voices can be heard joining together... WEEE'RE HAPPY LITTLE VEGEMITES AS BRIGHT AS BRIGHT CAN BE!!)

THAT WOULD BE THE BEST NATIONAL ANTHEM EVER! I am so very on board with this!

So, it's like molasses but bitter? Or something?

Hrm...I drink vinegar for goodness sakes, who knows I might like it. Lol.

I like nutella! But that's like...a puerto rican thing or something. Hazelnut spread omg awesome.

It's like...peanut butter but black and not made from peanuts. But that's the consistency! Except you don't put as much Vegemite on something as peanut butter!

Oh Nutella. They have that in NZ and Australia. The first time I had it I was in Germany and oh my lawd I died and went to heaven.

Wait, wait, does the US not have Nutella!? THEY'RE DEPRIVED OF NUTELLA????

AHHAHA it really is. I brought some back with me after I moved to Melbourne and I was visiting here. I got the BEST faces, it's awesome.

One of my friends took a bite of Vegemite toast, made a face, and said, "...this is a joke Australians play on foreigners, isn't it?"

Although to be fair, I think the same thing about Americans and Hershey's chocolate. >_>

From: [identity profile] artemisofluna.livejournal.com


HAHAHHAHAH! Yeah, I don't like it either. But if it makes you feel better, I think Hershey's chocolate is disgusting. Waxy bleh.

Agreed, even I don't like Hershey's. It's too rich, dark and yea.
