Move over toasted Vegemite and cheese sandwiches – there’s a newest late-night mealtime saviour in town.
If you’re a happy little (or big) Vegemite, you’ll be pleased and equally satisfied to taste your way through this Hunter and Bligh exclusive, a Vegemite Beef and Black Bean Stir Fry Recipe.
Designed to celebrate Harmony Week, Vegemite is encouraging Aussies to celebrate the diversity of cultures, languages and flavours of Australia by sharing a series of Vegemite-infused recipes.
Being one of the most multicultural countries in the world – *with almost half (49%) of Australians being born overseas or one or both parents being born in a different country – Vegemite has decided to spread light (and salty goodness) on Australia’s diverse culture.
Also unveiling a large-scale outdoor advertising Vegemite banner which has been translated into the top 10 most spoken languages in the country – Cantonese, Mandarin, Vietnamese, Arabic, Italian, Greek, Tagalog, Hindi, Spanish and English – their series of Vegemite-infused recipes will prove to be a global flavour celebration with Vegemite at the forefront.
