Uva into enokuba yingoma eyaziwayo yengoma, 'Uvele wancuma wandinika isandwich yeVegemite.' Ukuba awunguye wase-Australia, usenokuba uyazibuza ngeli xesha, yintoni ngu UVegemite phofu? Ngaba yimifuno, okanye yintoni?
'Okanye yintoni' ekufutshane kakhulu nenyaniso. Ngelixa i Ijenali yoPhando lwezeMbali kwezeNtengiso (nge Emerald Ukuqonda ) iqinisekisa ukuba aMadoda eMsebenzini pop hit yayiyeyona ndawo iphakamileyo yokwazisa e-US ngale ndawo ithandwayo e-Australia, nangona kunjalo isilele ukubamba eMelika ngenxa yayo, er, incasa eyodwa. Ngapha koko, ukuba ukhe wayingcamla iVegemite, into yesibini onokuzibuza yona (emva kwantoni ngu yile nto?) Ngaba, kutheni emhlabeni abantu base-Australia bazokuyisebenzisa ngokuzithandela?
Ngelixa kungekho mntu unokuphendula umbuzo wesibini, sinokuthi, ubuncinci, sibeke ingqondo yakho ngokukhululeka malunga nesithako semfihlakalo: ngokwe Vegemite iwebhusayithi, imveliso yabo yenziwe ngegwele lebhiya.
Kwenzeka njani ukuba uVegemite abekho?
Yikholwa okanye ungakholelwa, abantu base-Australia babesele bengamakhoboka kwigwele elisasazeka elibizwa ngokuba yiMarmite kwiminyaka engaphambi kokuba iVegemite yenziwe. Inyaniso, Iindaba ze-BBC uxela ukuba iVegemite yaphuhliswa ekuqaleni ngo-1922 njengenye indlela yaseBrithani yokungenisa iMarmite ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuba abantu baseAustralia abanakuze baphinde bahlupheke ngenxa yokunyamezela xa i-WWI yaseJamani i-U-boats igcina iinqanawa ze-Marmite ukuba zifike kwi-Land Down Ngaphantsi.
Ngelixa iVegemite ingakhange ibambe kwangoko e-Australia, yayingengombongo, kodwa kukhuphiswano oluvela kwiMarmite esele imiselwe kakuhle. Ngexesha le-WWII, nangona kunjalo, yonke loo nto yatshintsha- hayi ngenxa yokungenelela kwesikhephe se-U, njengangaphambili, kodwa ngenxa yokuba uVegemite wabandakanywa kwimikhosi yamajoni aseAustralia kwimfazwe kwaye ngenxa yoko wanxulunyaniswa nothando lobuzwe. I-jingle enomtsalane kakhulu yowe-1954 ebizwa ngokuba yi'Vuyolo Little Vegemites 'iphinde yaqinisa isikhundla semveliso njengokutya kwesizwe sase-Australia ngokuqinisekisa ukuba sonke isizukulwane saseAustralia asizokwazi ukuyifumana imveliso (okanye intengiso) ngaphandle kweentloko, akunamsebenzi indlela abazame ngayo.
Injani incasa yeVegemite?
Ngokwe-2015 IWashington Post Inqaku, ukukhangela kuGoogle 'kwiVegemite ukuthanda' kuya kuvelisa ezi ziphumo zintathu zilandelayo: isosi yesosi, ibhiya, kunye nosizi. (Kuvakala ngathi kufana nobusuku obuqhelekileyo boMgqibelo kuninzi lwethu.) Isosi yesosi, umm, kulungile, banako bobabini bayifumana into ka-umami eqhubekayo . Kwaye ibhiya yenye imveliso eyenziweyo ngegwele lebhiya, kungoko ke kunokufana. Kodwa lusizi?
Ngaphandle kwenkcazo ecacileyo yencasa uninzi lwabantu abangabemi baseAustralia abangaphantsi kokuthanda (kubandakanya owayesakuba nguMongameli uBarack Obama, owavuma ukuba ufumene uVegemite 'eyoyikekayo'), Thumela wazisa impikiswano ngelo xesha apho abezopolitiko abaliqela base-Australia babebiza ukuvalwa kwentengiso yeVegemite Oku kungenxa yokuba imveliso yayisetyenziswa zezinye izizwe zemveli ukwenza uhlobo lwenyanga, uhlobo lobuyiselo lobunjineli beVegemite's yeast base back to the booze apho yavela khona.
Oku kuvalwa akuzange kwenzeke, nangona kunjalo. Njengoko iVegemite isondela kwiminyaka yayo yokuzalwa eyi-100, isalawula, njengoko ibango lomenzi wayo, njengeyona mveliso 'inencasa efana neAustralia' - nangona ilizwe liphela lisenokuthi, bamkelekile kuyo.
