The Marmite Incident - 7/1/2007
Poor TJ - Jessica
Joe's obsessed with Spam, but I think that's because he's from Hawaii and half-Filipino. And he still eats Vienna sausage sometimes. When he opened a can, I was like, what smells like dog food? Yuck.
TJ's Delicate Sensibilities - Joe
I've never tried marmite or vegemite (Australian version of it) and probably never will. I mean it's by-product of beer and I'm just not into beer or its remains. So putting it on a sandwich and calling it lunch is out of the question. Now, Spam, oh yeah that's the stuff. I've had many a variety of said exquisite mystery meat - Smoked, Tabasco-infused, Turkey, Low sodium, and the regular, death-proofed original. In my younger years, I occasionally ventured out and sampled the alluring yet universally taboo, Vienna sausage. I think it was made of monkey meat or culled from the rarest unicorn horned dolphins, and the taste reflected that. Akin to cannibalism, it is a line of consumption that should never be crossed.
