No vegemite is not like peanut butter. I have it on toast in the mornings and at no other time. I tend to put a light layer of butter and then Vegemite on top.
However with peanut butter I'll have it in a sandwich I'll put it in my capsicum soup, I'll eat it directly out of the tub.
No. The closest analog I can think of would be kind of like a very strong Miso spread. It's just pure umami goodness.
But Skope speaks true, dude - spread it really thin. Some people like it thick, but if you start that way, you're going to hate it. Follow our sage advice, you'll love it.
Marmite is the yeast biproduct, vegimite is designed to approximate it, I think. Though I am not an authority on the subject, unlike Churba.
Nah, not really. I'm going from memory, from back when I was behind the bar a lot more - I was on a kick of trying to figure out umami-type cocktails, so I did a bit of research.
It's designed to make salable use of leftover brewer's yeast to replace the income lost with the disruption of import/export from England - not because we lost Marmite imports temporarily(it wasn't terribly popular outside of fresh ex-pats, as it didn't survive the journey over terribly well and was expensive as hell), but because we were selling you all our used up yeast. So we had a shitload of yeast on hand, nowt to do with it, and less money coming in. The product of that type already existed, so the inspiration is there. So a dude called Fred Walker told another bloke called Cyril somethingsomething to go sort that shit out, and thus Vegemite was born.
Not very unique, though - There's another swiss one that I kinda remember, centovis or something like that. There's OXO and Bovril, too, and a bunch of others. They all have distinct flavors, interestingly enough.

I really don't like the taste of Marmite, I gave it a go when I lived in the UK but then started buying the imported Vegemite after going through a tub.
British people will stand by their Marmite and Australians will stand by their Vegemite.
If you've tasted Indian Pale Ale beer then it is along those lines except very concentrated.

If you're saying that you haven't had vegemite on a sammich then how can you call yourself a true Australian? Eating it out of the tub might be a bit extreme with vegemite though.

Easy I can show you my passport, citizenship papers and also tell you that you have a poorly developed appreciation for the food experience if you think that a cold Vegemite sandwich is good.
I wasn't questioning whether you have 1 or more passports.
What pray tell is this "stuff"?
I know I'm just joking man :P
When I was going to primary my mom used to make vegemite and lettuce sandwiches. Sounds crazy but they are surprisingly delicious together. I'm sure it would go good on other sandwiches as well but it depends how much you like vegemite.
Oh look the colonies are at it again. I think you will find that its Marmite or nothing, and if it is nothing that you are a godless heathen that has no more right to live on this earth than a labour peer or a toad with gonorrhea. Quite understandable of course but its Marmite or nothing old boy.

Personally, I'd advise the second option.
And that is why, when the empire rises again ala return of the Sith, then the non Marmiters will be burnt at the stake or used in the Marmite mines.
Legally knowledgeable sort of types on the forums, I know it's a rather distasteful topic, but which apparent technicality did Zimmerman get off on?
After he's been acting like a nutcase of late, a bunch of people in my feeds are claiming he got off on a technicality, but as I remember it, he got off because the prosecution simply didn't have enough evidence to prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt, and I'm pretty sure that's not a technicality so much as how the system is supposed to work.
But, a hell of a lot of people seem to have this idea that he got off on a technicality, and the idea must have come from SOMEWHERE. Any ideas?
Zimmerman got off because the prosecution couldn't disprove that he was acting in self-defense.
In some jurisdictions, a self-defense claim can be invalidated if you're found to have made an escalation of force - say, if the person you're fighting a person who is unarmed and you pull a knife on them. Also, many jurisdictions have a "duty to retreat," where you can't claim self-defense if you could have run away (excepting when you are in your own home).
Florida has neither of these - the self-defense law states that a person may use lethal force in self-defense if (among a few other things) the person "reasonably believes that their life is in danger" from the other person. I think that's what they're angry about.

That's really six of one, half a dozen of the other, isn't it? Either way, the prosecution didn't have the evidence to prove their case against him, thus it failed.

I couldn't tell you if that's what they're angry about. I assume that's the case for some. Some just seem to be angry that he wasn't given a guilty verdict because they believe he was guilty.
But really, that's not what I'm asking about, I'm only asking about the technicality, because I'm kinda confused as to which version is correct - that he got off on a technicality, or if the legal system functioned correctly, even if it wasn't a particularly desirable result to most.
The legal system functioned as intended, and the people saying that he got off on a technicality are wrong. In my opinion, the relevant law is bad and poorly worded, though.
Also, by New York law, I'm pretty sure Zimmerman could have easily been convicted of first-degree manslaughter.

Specifically, I won a Kindle Fire in a contest and I'm trying to sell it so I can switch to a paperwhite.

Plus I have two passports so I win.
