Pass the Pemmican

For the uninitiated: Vegemite was once the principle food of the Old World, a miraculous mixture of cat bile, beer yeast and shoe polish that tasted bad on everything. Recommended for use on cardboard, cats, and crackers.

For the stout-hearted: my all-time favorite thanksgiving encounter. Land theft was a dangerous business, one best left to only the most fierce of Puritan microbes.
