I didn't grow up here, but my kids love Vegemite, so it must be something about having it young.

Unfortunately, they can't have Milo. It's Nestle, so I won't support child slavery, exploitation of the poor and literal child slavery.

I've moved the the Aldi imitation Milo. There's no way to spin it to say it's as good, it really isn't. But, it satisfies that hole left missing from having Milo.

I'm Aussie but my parents aren't. We never had it and I couldn't stand the smell.

Absolutely refused to eat it, kind of like some claim to fame... until one time I was blind drunk at about 25 and had some. Later I figured the bandaid needed to be ripped off so I tried it again.

It's delicious, but yeah child slavery isnt.

Haha, I don't put it on toast but indonput it in cooking for that umami taste. I think for me it's just too salty more than the yeast or meaty flavour.
