Vegemite and Marmite?

Also goes by the name devon and polony depending on what state your in.


Pat

In the ACT, we have devon, berliner and bologna. They're all similar.
I think bologna (which is hard to find) tastes the nicest.
Fritz is the equivalent of one of those, and is the name used in South Australia.

The picture I posted is actually bologna, but I thought they were similar enough for me to get away with it

Don't get me started on the difference between devon & fritz.... Or the difference between bung fritz and the commercial ones...

Cheesy-mite rolls are a type of savoury scroll bread roll. It is prepared by rolling the dough flat & spreading with vegemite and grated cheese then rolling up like a scroll. You then do the final prove and bake. A bakery franchise, Baker's Delight, first made them (I think).

A vegemite palmier is similar except that you use prepared puff pastry cut into half lengthways, then spread with vegemite. You then fold the 2 sides in to meet in the middle (encasing the vegemite) and then fold in half. You then slice this into thin pieces, say 1cm thick, and place with cut sides up on a tray and bake. When the pastry expands you get a kind of heart shaped savoury. They are just a variation on the more traditional ones with just sugar & cinnamon; mushroom or pesto style fillings.

Yum! Thanks for the information, everyone. I am a Kiwi so was a bit confused by all these terms!

Can you buy Vegemite/Marmite potato chips in Australia? I used to love those in the 1970s, but I'm not sure if you can still get them in NZ these days, as I live in California now.

NEVER HEARD OF THEM!

My girls love vegemite on crackers for school and this is exactally what I do too!

Now you've seen it all!

Yeh, See,........ I'm a bit of a Vegemite snob. I don't do Marmite, I'm afraid.

Jewelies, I managed to find some suppliers of those Walkers Marmite-flavoured potato chips (made in Britain) here in the USA! Probably won't taste the same as the Kiwi ones did, but I'm going to get some to try.

This place sells many Walkers chip flavours, including tomato ketchup-flavoured chips. I remember an equivalent of those back in the 1970s in NZ too! Memoriiiiieeees....

That looks like quite a good site! Mum always bought Rose's Marmalade and I do remember Cadbury Curly Wurly bars.

I think I remember the tomato ketchup chips too! But I don't remember the marmite ones. My favourite has always been salt and vinegar

Oh I love salt and vinegar chips!!! Luckily you can buy a few brands of those here in the USA. Gorgeous!

I found a wonderful page with a TON of British food suppliers selling all sorts of yummy things. Some are located in the USA, Canada, and some are in Britain. Some have physical stores you can visit and some are online stores, and some of them will ship worldwide.

I'm so happy I found this link! Also very happy I found the 2 links I posted back on page 2 of this thread, for Aussie/Kiwi suppliers here in the USA. A kind lady from Recipezaar who is married to a Kiwi (she lives in my area) emailed them to me and I'm forever grateful to her. I can now buy Allen's bananas and malt biscuits to make Lolly Cake!!! Unfortunately there is no USA equivalent to Fruit Puffs, bananas, eskimos, and I don't want to use mini marshmallows as they're just not the same.

mmmm.... salt and vinegar.....

(Must be Samboy tho' - the other brands aren't strong enough. They've got to make your eyes flutter.!)

I like Smiths S&V, and I eat them 'til my inner cheeks pucker and my tongue starts to sting

I hate chicken and barbecue flavour (in anything)

me too!!!!!!
