Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for December 25, 2012

For sure. From what I’ve heard, that stuff is vile — or an acquired taste at best!

I tried it years ago and was in Luann’s camp. I like horseradish, so who knows now I might like it. Maybe Quill is telling the family he is an acquired taste.

Nothing like the yeast extract by-product when making beer.

To approximate the taste, try sucking on a boullion cube.

Spread it thin, on top of butter. It’s tasty that way.

I think Lue was only one who did not spread it thinly

If I am not mistaken, one of the posters yesterday called this with 100% accuracy. Right on!^^Well, not quite 100%, but, close enough… And we have a winner!!!!VValananda said, about 22 hours ago

Oh, and in the box—it’s a Vegemite sandwich !!

Apropos of nothing in particular, we used to refer to horseradish sauce as horse rubbish sauce in our house. None of us cared for it.

A guy at work, about ten years back, used to scoop it out of the Jar with his fingers. Those of us nearby reeled from the aroma.

Luann’s disappointment that there isn’t anything romantic in that box is almost palpable (look at her expression in the 1rst panel)

Note here: Brad is in his robe, at his parents house. ^^Well, Xmas is a time for family, and , so far at least, Brad still has no family of his own…for the time being.

Luann should send him some wheat grass…

Good show, alananda!I guess the lad is training her to appreciate bitter flavours. So I’ve been told.

Too bad Quill isn’t in Scandinavia – he could send her lutefisk. It’s probably in the same category as vegemite (but less tasty, I hear). Anybody out there with 1st hand experience?

“Grandma got ran over by a reindeer!”And I was just about to report that it happened again… I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus!

Thank you, thank you

What’s Brad doing there in his bathrobe. He should be home unwrapping Toni!!

Its called Marmite in the UK. Probably because Ma might like it but Pa probably won’t.

Since things are a bit slow here, I may as well add another South Park Luann Character…. I really like the way this one came out:

Horseradish sauce with beef is great. Vegemite with anything is vile.Beer is good with everything.

Just don’t compare it to Marmite. They take their Vegemite seriously down there. A friend is sending me some, as I can’t find it here.

They’re ALL liars. I’ve got a jar of vegemite that was sent to me from friends in Victoria back in 1999. Since it smells the same as it did when I got it, how do you know if it’s gone bad? It tastes like…..take an egg, break it into an old shoe and bury it under a chicken coop for a week….

Anyone up for some vegemite sangers?

I’ve tasted Marmite and lived to regret doing so. I have thereafter avoided Vegemite, though it is said to be less bad…. Quill’s test is insidious.

Next time, send Tim-Tams

Religious eCardNot so much eCardDog waiting for Santa eCard (sorry, I couldn’t play it as a simple link, so it includes the wrapper website) or video file (if you have an FLV player).

It tastes better than a fast moving brick sandwich at least.

love it………Merry Christmas

vegemite? nasty dark soul of hell spread. stuff that should be used as an “enhanced interrogation device.” that is up there with bovril.

“roasting chipmunks”

You gave me a visual of Chip and Dale skewered over a spit. Not that they didn’t deserve it. Merry Christmas :)

Nasty stuff. Sorry if I offended any Aussies.

“Lu’s LYING Ozball! About LIKING Your FEAST!”“Because VEGEMITE is Something She LIKES in the LEAST!”Then Sipping His COFFEE, Mordock THOUGHT of a Plan.“Why I’ll FLY down to Sidney! And CHOP Off Quill’s Hands!”

Vegemite tastes like brewers yeast, in fact that’s basically what it is.

The days of smearing vegemite on dingdongs and twinkies are history. What’s the world coming to?

Could have been worse and he could have sent them Haggis from Scotland.I think Brad unwrapped Toni’s girt after they go the brat to sleep.

Her reaction was in poor taste!

Of course, Vegemite is widely available in the US, so at best he sent them an un-unique gift. It’s okay, though; it’s the thought that counts.

I just got back from vacation in Australia, where at the hotel Vegemite was served at the breakfast buffet in thise little capsules like they serve the jelly and honey. I brought back a bunch of those. It’s a strong taste, yes, but one can get used to it. Basically, it’s very salty, which just makes ya want more beer. :) I stir it into cooked rice or pasta, soups and stews to give the dish a little extra oomph.

a Kiwi friend tried for years to get me to like Vegemite

she couldn’t do it

I do love the ability of Quill catching Luann in a fib..

Quill is definitely turning a bit creepy.

So, let me get this straight…. Vegemite is the scuzz taken from the bottom of a beer kettle, mixed with horseradish?WHY would anyone even think that would be something they’d want to eat

That stuff taste like pure salt. But it can become a tad bit addicitive.

Can’t put anything by Quill. “I loved it, really!” “Liar…”

Re:Brad Until he seals the deal with Toni, it’s most appropriate for him to spend time with his parents, and she with hers. (Toni’s parents DO exist, right?)

Quill is smart.

Luv the GAK!

MERRY CHRISTBIRTH DAY

happy holidays to you, you know who.

And the rest of you who don’t happen to like it, I truly feel sorry for you.

My dad was from Oz, and I love the stuff, but one of our grandkids thought is was applebutter – and BOY! was he surprised!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL

Lying! Always part of a solid relationship!

I prefer Promite. Toast bread, put on butter and Promite, toast a bit more. Much better that way. Oh, try melting some cheese on top too. Promite gravy is also good.

I hereby deem Vegemite to be totally and forever ‘trayf’.-—————-Since Vegemite has no animal components, it could not possibly be trayf on its own. It would be parve. The only thing I can think of that would keep it from getting a hechsher would be the production/packaging method—do the glass jars touch trayfeh lubricants? Is trayf processed in the same plant? I’m looking at some of the images of the jar (Bing search) and don’t see a hechsher on any of the labels.

Having both corn and soy components, however, Vegemite certainly is not Pesadich.

Perhaps Michael ben Avram (wink wink) can shed some more light on the issue.

Vegemite, the life’s blood for Aussies. My Aussie friends fight to get this stuff in the US. They think it’s Awesome!

Do the rest of the instructions say “and have at least 3-fingers of a stiff drink handy”?

I love vegemite.
