MAGIC MINUTE // There was a time Australians would fret if they didn’t have some Vegemite in their luggage… and I’m not joking!
Even our Kiwi neighbours say, “What’s with you Australians and your bloody vegemite?”
I once shared a long train journey from Vienna with a Canadian teacher; carrying a plastic bag some Aussie friends had just given me.
And what a story this teacher told about teaching Indian children in the wilds of Canada with an Australian colleague.
Then he stopped: “I don’t believe it! In that bag… a jar of Vegemite!
This whole year my Aussie workmate has been raving about how he misses his Vegemite. Yet when we got to taste it, it was horrible!
And the first Australian I come across on my holiday is carrying nothing but a jar of the stuff!”
I’m Laurie Smale… Till my next Magic Minute. 🪄
