Vegemite ice blocks are here to ruin summer, probably
The yeast spread Vegemite is iconic as they come in Australia, but it's probably the last thing you want to mix with anything remotely sweet.
Too late: Now there's Vegemite icy poles (a.k.a. popsicles), and you can make them yourself according to a recipe on the breakfast spread maker's website.
For those unfamiliar with Vegemite, it's a bitter and salty yeast spread that's ideal on toast or crackers — but only in small doses. The concoction is not too dissimilar to British Marmite, but Australians will convince you their version is better.
That's despite the awful-sounding combinations some Australians come up with.

The recipe for the ice cream includes a mix of vanilla, cocoa and honey, so of course you won't be just tasting pure, unadulterated Vegemite.
Still, it's enough of an idea to divide the nation.

Vegemite has had a similar foray into the world of sweets, combining with Cadbury chocolate back in 2015. Please, no more.
