The new name ‘Vegemite Cheesy Bite’ doesn’t leave much to the imagination.
Marmite is far superior anyway, Vegemite on crack.

Still i’d probably give it a shot. It’s not nearly as cringeworthy as the iSnack 2.0 marketing suicide on this side of the pond, this should be a case study in how not to do things. Although it got more coverage for being terrible than it ever would have had if it were good. So maybe it’s very clever. http://news.ninemsn.com.au/national/869722/kraft-dumps-controversial-isnack-name

Loved the idea of this recipe though so have just made a batch of the pancakes for a full house here…so good . i would usually use a pancake recipe where the eggs and yolk are separated and whites whipped to stiff peaks then folded into the yolk batter. however my kind American friends showed me this super simple method. Works perfectly for this recipe:

American Pancakes

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 1/4 cups milk
1 egg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla

Directions:

In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Make a well in the center and pour in the milk, egg and melted butter; mix until smooth.

Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

London’s nascent coffee culture seems to be generating a new generation of coffee savvy hipsters who know their arabica from their robusta and won’t be fooled by this hollow strategy.

Viva la vera cafe!

selah.

ooh – there’s a bar on Curtain Road that has it on tap and in bottles. can’t remember the name but I staggered out of it around 3ish the other morning. Needless to say I hadn’t been doing the occasional pint of water thing but still got off with a morning knocker**

**Morning Knocker: Hard hitting hangover that knocks on the inside of your head while you wake up bringing all the fear that your day will be ruined. The Knocker however can it’s self be knocked on the head by a few pints of water, liter of Green tea and some healthy breakfast. You’ll be fine by 11.

*Lunchtime Creeper: You wake up feeling apparently fine, you forget you were hung over and so don’t rehydrate yourself. By lunchtime you feel like a pig came along and shat in your brain. An inability to function will soon follow and you are forced to go home early with intent to fall straight into bed.

They charge for condiments in australia too as the Sharminator can tell you, however it;s a great deal less offensive there as their sauces come in space ages containers which allow you to squirt sauce on your pie one handed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4nUhD92yNU

Mind you, I went to Enids yesterday and apart from the super hot Waitresses, they had a cranberry pancake special – same as the more boring blueberry pancake but with cranberrys instead… this really worked for me despite as you know being a griddlecake purist – unlike the sweet blueberry, the cranberrys are nice and tart, i don;t need any sweeteners in my flapjacks what with the quantity of condensed maple sap i ladle over them. The super hot waitress said blueberry hotcakes were better but after i explained this argument to her I am sure she came round to my way of thinking.

If you can get any fresh cranberries you should try ‘em – after all, it’s thanksgiving this week. I think a turkey sausage could work as a side ….

Keep up the good work.

Take the Avo, Cut it in half, and then scroe the flesh, right down to the skin. Fill up the hole with Worcester and eat with a spoon.

bit of cinamon pushes it further south (almost all the way to morocco!)

now I just have to convince Jay to let me cook it …
