Wow. Another piece of Australian heritage going down the drain...

I mean, Vegimite is owned by Kraft now.

VEGIMITE.

This just shouldn't happen.

Yeah, he's a banned spammer. Normally we'd delete this thread too, but people were having too much fun with it by the time we got here.

...I wouldn't care if the devil bought Vegimite.

I had some when I was a kid, I know I'm not Australian but it seems the world would lose nothing if it were never invented. It's not some landmark food like Ice Cream or Oreos or Bruscetta. It doesn't even taste good. I mean, I'd rather have prune spread than Vegimite.

But apparently at one time it was considered a huge treat by most Australian kids, and it's a huge part of some Australians' childhood memories or perhaps it's even someone's favorite food. So while I think I'd rather chew on a flavorless dog biscuit, there are people who might have good reason to be upset by KRAFT's ownership of Vegimite.

Then again, it could only be improved upon.

Thank god for the disclaimer, dude. I had my thumb in the little jar of napalm. Which, co-incidentally, looks a lot like vegimite.

Well, Kraft already owns Oreos. The Ice Cream people are next!

I love the candy-coated chocolate eggs. But a lot of their stuff is good.

Just wait until Nestle buys out Kraft. Oh god Nestle. We're not even talking about shades of grey here, this company is pure evil. I haven't heard anything about Kraft one way or the other.
