Americans React to Australia | Why Australians Are Really Odd 

You guys reacted to Nash Daily before.Remember the 8days in the Philippines?

We are not odd. The rest of the world are. 😛

We are not odd. We are normal, the rest of the world are odd. Just a thought for contemplation.

Wait on! I used to get my morning smoko ( a Vegemite bun ) at the local take-away, run by a Kiwi ( New Zealander ), but it took me some time to train him. I used to watch him prepare it, and would have to say "No mate, I can still see the bread; more butter please!". Then it was "No mate, I can still see the butter; more Vegemite please. His response one day was "I don't know how you can eat this shit", "That, my sheep-shagging friend, is because you are not an Aussie". Anyway, I go him trained up, and all was good.

"Ryan lives in Tasmania" ...Well now that makes a bit more sense

The boy who makes the Teddy bears whole inspiration begun by giving kid's with cancer or other kids with early life debilitating illnesses a free home made Teddy bear by him throughout hospitals in Australia. He truly has a heart of gold.

Even better than vegemite on toast is to spread it on a piping hot crumpet. Crumpets hold their heat better when they're toasted... Bread tends to cool down really quickly. Crumpets also have lots of tiny holes in them for the melted butter and vegemite to sink into and give off an amazing flavour when you bite into it.. getting the butter and vegemite ratio to your liking is important... Some like a strong flavour but vegemite is definitely an acquired taste.

The vitamins is the B vitamin, it comes from the yeast extract. Vegemite is like a soy sauce or tamari style savoury paste. So you use it as you would soy. It’s incredible with smashed avocado, cheese, butter and even honey with banana

Young Ryan who makes the Teddy Bears is an absolute hero. He has brightened up some dark days people have had. I understand all the funds go towards materials and postage of the Bears. You are right his parents did raise him right.

They also make sheep whey gin which is better than the vodka. Butter is only salty if you buy salted butter, it is not naturally salty. Use unsalted butter and you get the full butter flavour. If you want salt, add it yourself. A traditional way to eat vegemite is two take two crackers with holes in them. Spread one with butter and vegemite, put the other on top and squeeze. Little worms of butter and vegemite come out of the holes. Lick them off and eat the crackers.

Vegemite on toast is great for a hangover, this alone makes it an Aussie icon

Campbell the teddy bear kid gets a lot of donations every year, a generous lady even paid to have his sewing room completely decked out along with heaps of material to make his bears. A lot of his bears go to our hospitals in Tasmania for the kids and they love them.

Butter or margarine definitely dilute the saltiness of vegemite, so if you want a less intense flavour that is the way to go.

Vegemite scraped on buttered toast for Brekkie is the best!

There is a video on RU-vid where Hugh Jackman shows Jimmy Fallon how to eat Vegemite. Very educational, Worth a look.

Fun fact: Vegemite is extracted from the leftover yeast from the beer brewing process. If you're not bought up on it it's an acquired taste same as anchovies and stuffed olives are for a lot of people. It's great on a toasted sandwich with cheese or under the grill with the same :)

Vegemite can be used as a beef stock for many meals.....fantastic on buttered toast....you use the amount that you prefer.....

60% Natural Butter + 30% Vegemite... mixed together on thick white toast is a taste sensation (greater percentage of butter breaks the saltiness of vegemite down)

Tips for Vegemite. Toast, lots of butter and a small amount of Vegemite for beginners, no more than your small finger nail. It is very very salty and the butter mellows it out. Once you get used to it you can increase the amount you put on the toast.

We add butter to aid spreading the Vegemite. Vegemite is hard to spread on toast without adding butter or margarine first. It also helps if the bread is still warm.

You do NOT eat it by the spoonful & DONT apply it like Nutella. Small amount in a thin layer on buttered toast.

As an Aussie I love watching the reactions of Americans eating Vegemite Makes me laugh so much So please try

Butter and vegemite on toast with avocado and/or cheese is amazing! You just need to get the ratio right

Being generic, food in America is high in "sugar", even if it doesn't identify as sugar - high-fructose corn syrup is sugar from corn.... Vegemite is a trademark, but there are similar products called Promite, Marmite and Ozemite... they are a yeast extract. The vitamins are several B group, along with K.

For first time tasters I would recommend no more than a pea size amount of vegemite on a slice of buttered toast.

I think this video is more why Australians are awesome, bit biased perhaps, but it sure comes across more awesome than odd

Vegemite = Start small and work up to taste / tolerance level. 😃👍

European Australians have been making vodka since colonial times. After the Rum Rebellion (yes that is a historical event) in the colony of New South Wales we had to improvise because our first currency was liquor and rum was hard to produce without sugar cane) So has anyone seen how hard it is to milk a kangaroo - hello... our first vodka currency was developed.

It’s common in Australia to use unsalted butter

Eating vegemite off a spoon would be like eating a strong beef stock cube. Very savoury and salty. I used it to make meat loaf once. I imagine it would also work as a soup stock.

The butter does help also , after the vegemite i also put a little more butter...omg im drooling as i write this...time to put the toast in the toaster!!!

I love Vegemite, I came to Australia from Holland where salted licorice is a delicacy, haha, try that!

I don't know why but "I like salt" cracked me up

We don't put vegemite on bread like Nutella. It is more of a condiment than a spread. Some people put a bit in a stew to enhance the flavour. Butter is really important because the creaminess takes the edge off. Never eat it by the spoonful or you will hate it. Love your channel guys. Awesome.xx

Greg made Astronomy INTERESTING.

Fun fact: Vegemite is a byproduct of fermenting beer... So think of that weird fermenty smell. Real fact: NO ONE eats it off the spoon unless they are trying to convince someone else to do it for a prank.

Hi Guys...Vegemite is yeast extract with salt added and just about every kid in Australia (Straya) grows up eating Vegemite on buttered toast or on plain bread and butter, the secret to eating Vegemite is to spread it very thinly, I have known Americans to spread it just like they would spread peanut butter...NOT GOOD!...lol

Aussies got Marmite from England but WW2 stopped the supplies. Vegemite was then allowed to be made here. Promite is a smoother sweeter version that Americans would prefer, made by Mars Foods.

Vegemite you have to start at at least 3 parts butter to 1 part Vegemite on toast. Also popular with a piece of cheese on it too, cheese and Vegemite on toast.

Hot crusty bread, lashing of butter and good dollop of vege... the best.

U have to make it QUICK and NOT SALTED BUTTER! Lots of butter not much vegemite on HOT toast while standing on dewy grass in the morning rays of sun through the gumtrees while the birds wake up is HEAVEN.

Vegemite is a potent beer by-product full of vitamins. A tiny amount on buttered toast with grilled cheese on top for savory breakfast is the bomb. That lady must have a few loose screws eating it out of the jar like that xD

You have already watched him on 8 Days in the Philippines.

My friend from Ireland calls Vegemite 'salt jam'

In a lot of parts of the world, stars are very hard to see. Light from houses, businesses and street lights, gives us limits. Out in Woop Woop, there is no ambient light, darkness is absolute except for the moon and stars. Australia is in a very good place to see a lot of the milky way, though the constellations we see are different to what is overhead in other countries. Lying under the stars at night, out there, there is not a lot else to see. Any time there is something unusual like a comet visible, we see groups of people out in the desert with Greg on tv.

When I have vegiemite we use margarine but I know people who use butter I would advise to use unsalted butter also everyone I've seen try it always puts too much on if you cant see the bread through the vegiemite then it's too much. When you frist start eating it I would put 5 small dots of it on the bread before spreading it. Its something you have to build up to over time

Vegemite taste like beef stock. Stock is salty and the closest taste to describe it is beef. When I've run out of beef stock I've used vegemite. The lady who put it in hot water was drinking it like a cup of beef flavoured soup. When people try it and react with a "yuk" ,it's just the saltiness that bites their mouth. My parents immigrated from Europe, they like vegemite, my mum was a genius with it. Vegemite , cheese and lettuce sandwiches for lunch at school. Remember vegemite tastes like beef. So much can be done with it, started as a versatile food for families in the early depression years.

no one spreads Vegemite like nutella, blokes a drongo

Idea to cover the sounds of Australia whilst camping. Possums and Koalas as they make the scariest noises. Ringtail Possums during mating season sound like the devil at night and Koala males grunt like a big bear when mating, the females also scream really loudly. It can be terrifying to go camping if you are unaware. Probably many other Australian animals that are noisy at night also but these two are common. The Tasmanian Devil is known for it's terrifying screams at night. Tawny frogmouths are noisy at night. Crocs adult males make a noise like a monster whilst the babies are cute. Emus make echoing throat sounds which is cool when you wake up to it in the mornings when camping. Rain Forest bird sounds is nice also and unique to Australia and of course the Kookaburra. You can imagine how awesome it is to go camping in Australia, all the wild parrots are amazing also, my favourite is the Black Cockatoo. The Wedge Tailed Eagle is an awesome bird that can hunt a kangaroo in pairs, using their talons to pierce the kangaroos brain and kill it instantly.

A small amount of Vegemite in a toasted cheese sandwich is also good. The best way to try Vegemite is to apply butter to hot toast. The melted butter allows you to spread the smallest amount of Vegemite.

I was fed Vegemite sandwiches from about the age of 2. That's pretty normal here!

Vegemite is very high in vitamin B, it's an acquired taste but sometimes I crave it which tells me my diet is short in vitamin B. The English equivalent is Marmite.

You're supposed to spread Vegemite lightly on bread but it really depends on what your preferences are.

Space Gandalf!

vegemite: No-one eats it from a spoon, it’s a joke like drop bears. Thin slice on toast or bread is all. Very strong taste to not use sparingly.

Indigenous Aussies also invented Aussie Rules Football

We use unsalted butter and just a little vegemite.

You should watch outback truckers tv show

Vegemite - fresh white bread, slathered with real butter and then a smattering of vegemite....best way to eat it!

Well you see an Aussie can eat Vegemite because we either are immune to it or at a young age we start off small and work our way up. Someone should make a tutorial on how to use this. “How to use Vegemite as a beginner”

How is there no video with you trying Aussie snacks? Surely someone has sent Tim Tams, chicken chips, chicken salt, vegemite etc!

MUNGO MAN were the 1st Australians

Its beautiful under the stars. Daytime is a problem. Water shortage drinking.

Best time to eat Vegemite is on Hot buttered toast, lightly smeared not smothered, last thing at night after a night out before going to bed. Yummm 😋

"I like salt", you just got a sub guys. Cheers from Brisbane.

Vegemite. The correct way. Toast with butter. “Light” spread of Vegemite. Many of us like to mix the butter and Vegemite together when it’s on the toast. This combination makes for a milder taste. You mix it until the result looks like a bad day in the bathroom. Forget the looks, it’s awesome.

You need to understand odd. We call it our way. Watch the movie THE DISH. Good story but even better, a look a Australian.

Butter/Margarine, Vegemite and Peanut Butter on toast.The best combination.

You should check out an old movie called 'They're a Weird Mob'

Greg is called “Space Gandalf” 👍🏻

It's really good but need butter we also have margarine which is like butter with no salt so butter first lightly spread the vegimite then a slice of cheese on top I highly reccomed you try it it makes me so angry watching people do it wrong hahaha

Vegemite should be smeared on buttered fresh bread or toast. Any other use is for crazy people. I first ate it as a toddler. There is a similar British product called Marmite. To me Marmite tastes like Vegemite about 10 years past its expiry date. Both spreads, now more than 100 years old, started as cheap ways for the poor to improve the flavour of plain bread/toast. Similar in concept to fish paste made from anchovies. Maybe Americans were too prosperous to need such products.

When I lived overseas for 6 months I took the largest jar of Vegemite that I could find. It was an essential and one of the first things I packed.

Vegemite is great on steaks too

Always butter toast,bread or crumpets & then spread Vegemite THINLY.......repeat....THINLY on said items. Americans tend to pile on any spreads being used.I admit I do that with jam (yeah,that's right JAM.... NOT JELLO)

90 for a bottle of vodka is upper middle shelf. Mind you the cheapest vodka you can get in Australia is $32. We love to tax any legal "drugs", alcohol, cigarettes etc.

Hartshorn Distillery is not far from me. Takes a lot of whey to make a bottle of vodka due to the low amount of lactose. Best vodka around, worth the price. Tasmanians are awesome.

As an Aussie who HATES veggie mite I'd like to see your reaction, Yes you need to have it on buttered bread or toast perhaps try it on both buttered and un-buttered?

thanks for keeping us distracted during lockdown. melbourne has just been extended for another 7 days so keep the aussie content coming!! Show us the vegemite reaction as long as you eat it correctly! no spoonfuls no spitting no Ewws!!

the only thing you need to know about vegemite is that even those of us that are heavy user only use a tiny little bit.it is super strong flavor i would say put the tinniest little dot on your finger and taste you will see that a tiny bit is yummy but if like lots of people to try it by the spoon you will regret it and that's all i have to say about that

Hey boys. You should check out some clips from Bondi Rescue. Gr8 show.... set on Bondi beach, follows the lifesavers saving people. + More. Worth checking out. 👍

BAMF came from one of the Dirty Harry movies - Philly De Franco stole that BAMF.

Vegemite is Delicious! You just have to eat it right

The vegimite clip was weird to me. Literally lived in Australia my whole life and don’t know a single person who eats it alone 🤣

Watching because the title was interesting but then kept watching because of Miles 😍😂

Nope couldn't eat it off the spoon. I only lightly smear it on before I eat it. It is very salty

Guys you got to try chocolate and smith chips together sorry I'm from Australia

Another reason we are odd is all our chocolate is real chocolate USA. 🤓😊😄😃🤣😂😁👍🇦🇺

Another great video. It made me laugh because I was eating a Vegemite sandwich when that part came on 😂. I like my Vegemite thick enough to burn your mouth. Makes a great beef stock cube substitute too.

The thing with Vegemite, less is more, and believe it or not, Vegemite is the resulting dregs leftover from beer brewing.

If we are odd and make people laugh that can't be all bad!

Damnnnn. I thought my phone hang

It's the butter first then a t h I n smear of Vegemite. Most of us NEVER eat it off spoon. It is a yeast product hence is chockers with B Vitamins

First Nations people were in Australia 65thousand years ago

Oh & as for Vegemite, it's a malt extract, so you need to use it VERY SPARINGLY. It is an acquired taste however here in Australia most of us grew up with it. Toast, Heavily buttered & a tiny bit of Vegemite, unless you wish to taste Vegemite for the rest of the day if you put it on thick lolol

It was accepted that Aboriginals had been in Australia for around 40,000yrs but latest research suggests it is closer to 65,000yrs.The 1st & original Australians.There are now fewer than 3% of the national population,although there are many others claiming aboriginality,mainly to get various govt handouts specific to Aboriginals. Many do it tough & are often victims of distance.Over $1b has been spent trying to change things but isn't controlled well enough.

Don’t eat it from the jar. Toast, melted butter add the vegemite 🇦🇺

No Aussies eat Vegemite with a spoon. If they say they do they are bullshitting. We eat Vegemite on bread or toast, lots of butter right to the edges, with Vegemite on top. Some like a thin scrape on top and some like it thick. Personally I like a thin scrape, I think people who like it thick have an iron tongue haha 😂 for an Aussie, it’s comfort food, yum yum 🤤 we were all bought up on it as kids. 🥰😂

If you have mouth ulcers or sores in your mouth put some on a spoon and put the spoon in your mouth for 10 minutes and tomorrow your ulcer/sore will be gone. You don't have to eat it.

Vegemite - high in b group vitamins!
