melthebell Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 To combat alcohol abuse, i take it yeast is already restricted and this is the next step, whod want marmite flavoured booze anyway?

The Joker Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 They can't ban Vegemite, it's part of Aussie national culture (stop sniggering at the back) and was immortalised in the song Land Down Under by Men at Work: I say you speaka my language? He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gularscute Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Does the vitamin B content help to mitigate the effects of excessive alcohol consumption? If so, maybe the practice should be encouraged for reasons of damage limitation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffrey Shaw Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 If you like Marmite, don't spread it around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfish1936 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 One "recipe" involves mixing fruit juices and sugar, adding Vegemite, and leaving it to ferment in a warm climate. I imagine the fermenting yeast comes from the fruit rather than the Vegemite, and I believe the result would be similar in alcohol without the dead yeast of the spread.

blake Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 "it says the yeast-based product is contributing to anti-social behaviour in some remote communities." why don't they just come clean and say it's the Abbos? this is PM Abbo cracking down hard, on other Abbos.
