What the Americans think of vegemite... a photographic journal.

Ok, so Jess & I took a couple of jars of vegemite, just to test it out on our billets and our billets school friends... It was hilarious, they cannot stand the stuff... well 12/13 couldn't stand it. Most of them were gasping, but the best happened in Mt Si. Nomes and I went to Landis' spanish class and we gave some to this guy. He ate it, started to cough and retch then had to run out of the classroom to throw up. The teacher had no idea what was going on. That was funny. Although I guess not from his perspective...Unfortunately no photos of victim no.13.

Victim no.1 - Aleks of Eastlakes High Reaction -Lots of gasping and shrieking. Must be given credit for being only one of three girls brave enough to try the stuff in all of Redmond!

Rating - 7/10

Victim no.2 -Unknown Guy of Eastlakes High Reaction - Pretty much the same as Aleks, just at a slightly lower pitch and more retching actions...

Rating - 6/10

Victim no.3 -Eddy of Eastlakes High Reaction - Just a pained look of disgust.

Rating - 5/10

Victim no.4 -Guy at Rainier High Reaction - Actually the only person to like the stuff, though he did grimace a bit upon first consumption

Rating - 10/10 (just coz he liked it...)

Victims no.5 & 6 -Suzy and sister of Orting High Reaction - These two were hilarious, probably because I made them eat it at about 3am and we were already on a sugar high. They jumped around & screamed a lot and continued to wash their mouths out for about an hour. As retribution I was made to eat an entire pack of junior mints in one mouthful, but that's another story...

Rating - 10/10



The experiment continues...
