Marmite, Vegemite, and Peanut Butter
 

Marmite, Vegemite, and peanut butter. These are supposedly good examples of food stuffs that you must grow up with in order to enjoy. So Im bored and curious to see if this is true. Are these food stuffs really that nasty that the only way someone would like it is if they had a childhood built around this stuff?

Anyone wanna share their experience of say, traveling to Australia and trying out Vegemite? Or perhaps some non-Americans came over here and tried peanut butter for the first time? What was your reaction to these foods?

Vegemite is just plain nasty! I don't know of anyone who thought peanut butter was nasty (talking about non-americans). Some don't like it much, but could still eat it... I can not say the same for vegemite! I almost puked.

Not much at all.. a very little bit spread on a small peice of bread. It was spread about as thickly as you spread butter on toast.
