Vegemite is cancelled.

The sacred extracted yeast spread that many Aussies hold dear is trying to make Vegemite icy poles happen. They’re NOT going to happen.

The brand’s socials posted this monstrosity earlier today:

The reactions ranged from disgust to flame-eyed rage. What the hell are you doing Vegemite? Thank fuck this isn’t actually a product they are producing, instead, the link attached to the post leads to a recipe, which includes two tablespoons of vegemite.

The instructions for the desert include:

“COMBINE in a saucepan the sugar, cocoa, honey, VEGEMITE, corn flour and milk. Whisk over a medium heat until the mixture is smooth, bring to the boil , reduce the heat and simmer gently until slightly thickened and custard like. Remove from the heat, pour into a heat proof bowl and chill. Fold the whipped cream through the chilled custard mixture then pour into popsicle moulds. Freeze until firm.”

So there you have it – now you can make your very own creamy sugary marmite frozen treat. Yummo? Thanks but no thanks.
