Some interesting ideas floating around here. Not enough time to try them all and maybe that's a good thing. :)


For any Aussie's confused by this, Jelly=Jam. ;)



Actually, jelly comes from fruit juice and jam comes from the fruit itself.

Hmm, I'll have to take your word for it but here in Aus, jelly is this:

I think Americans call that Jello? Don't think that would taste too fantastic on a sanga*, but then again... ;D

Yes, that would be Jello as we Americans know it.

As to "For any Aussie's confused by this, Jelly=Jam", I rememered Aussie Jam was "Jam" as I knew it (the stuff put on biscuits). Since the store didn't have "Jelly" I used Aussie Jam to make a Peanut Butter and Jam (Jelly) sandwich ;D

As to vegamite, my first and last contact with it was at breakfast on my first full day there. Guess one has to get used to it as a main staple in one's diet.  Perhaps some "Jam" might have made it go down the hatch better ::)
