An Ancient Vegemite Jar Has Baffled The Internet With Its Suggestion For A Mite-y Beveragino

A very, very vintage jar of Vegemite has sent the internet into a tizzy ‘cos of its mysterious slew of “serving” “suggestions”. A bloke posted a pic of an incredibly old jar of Vegemite to the Old Shops Australia Facebook group. According to the post, the man’s dad found the jar on a building site 40 years ago. Now that, my friends, is a family heirloom. The jar is originally from the 1930s, and the label includes a big ‘ol list of uses for the yeastiest of treats. “Use in sandwiches, soups, stew and gravies,” the packaging read. Pretty normal so far — though as a self-proclaimed Vegemite hater (sorry) I can never get around that thick brown spread on a sandwich. However, the next suggestion was a little more bold. A little more esoteric and daring, perhaps. A culinary creation with the power to offend and delight in equal measure. “Half to one teaspoonful in a glass of hot milk or water makes a nourishing beverage,” the label suggested.
