Is this like that great Australian practical joke known as Vegemite that they keep around and eat while strangers come to visit, never once grimmacing or wretching where one can see them but otherwise keep locked away on a top shelf somewhere? Darned Aussies 'll do anything for a laugh. If it IS like Vegemite then I understand why it would be great for dieters and soup: YOU WON'T WANT ANY. Shuddering and regretting even reading this message during lunch break....
