Some idiot in Sweden is presenting an exhibition of disgusting foods.
Amongst the exhibits are cheese swarming with maggots, deep fried spiders, bull's dicks (a favourite in China...and I bet Shen loves them with some rice noodles and soy sauce) and other nauseating items loosely called food.

Even American root beer is placed on display.
But Vegemite!!!
The Australian delicacy that graces every Australian's pantry, and consumed by every Australian kid and adult???
That is NOT a disgusting food.
It is ambrosia from the gods themselves!!!
Fucking Swedish scumbuckets. acc_angry
Vegemite is disgusting.
Says the epicurean gourmand while chewing his peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
"black Australian food spread made from leftover brewers' yeast extract with various vegetable and spice additives."
My parents liked the stuff. Dunno .. . must be something to do with being upside-down for a long time
Dunno where or how they got it after coming here .. but I I missed out on a lot of deserts for refusing it
Everybody hates vegemite
I hate vegemite

I hate vegemite
See I was right. Everybody hates vegemite.
That's pretty conclusive
My theory has always been that one has to be upside-down for a long time - I was only 7 when I got right-side up ... not enough upside-down time
The ONLY exception is those raised on a much smaller island and force-feed marmite as a kid

Theres the new hot dog water. Its bullshit, but rich dummies think it's amazing.
There are rich people who also drink their own pee thinking it will help them look youthful.

I believe it's been asked before, but is peanut butter popular in Australia?
It's the most popular bread spread here.

I've cooked moose roasts, steaks and burgers..
My husband doesn't hunt himself, but we have many friends who do..
We have been given moose in the past..
My husband prefers it to beef.
I would try it. Never had the chance
I do like bear meat and bare meat

I have heard black bear meat is smelly and gamey tasting.
I eat cows chickens, pigs, shrimp and occasionally lobster tails. I have tried buffalo, it wasn't bad.
Never had vegemite, probably never will. I would try it though if I had the opportunity.

I remember watching a documentary one about cheese making in Europe somewhere, can't remember where...but there were under the table markets that sold certain types of maggots...and people would go just to buy these maggots to make their own cheeses...it was really gross but interesting at the same time..

Casu marzu (Sardinian pronunciation: [ˈkazu ˈmaɾdzu]; literally 'rotten/putrid cheese'), also called casu modde, casu cundídu and casu fràzigu in Sardinian, is a traditional Sardinian sheep milk cheese that contains live insect larvae (maggots). A similar cheese, casgiu merzu, is found in Corsica.[1]
Derived from pecorino, casu marzu goes beyond typical fermentation to a stage of decomposition, brought about by the digestive action of the larvae of the cheese fly Piophila casei. These larvae are deliberately introduced to the cheese, promoting an advanced level of fermentation and breaking down of the cheese's fats. The texture of the cheese becomes very soft, with some liquid (called lagrima, Sardinian for "teardrop") seeping out. The larvae themselves appear as translucent white worms, about 8 mm (0.3 in) long.

Vegemite is delightful. Foreigners just eat it incorrectly when they first try it plus there is the socially spread phobia about it which taints perception.
Non-Australians lack the refinement to appreciate distinctive and nourishing foods.
