September 30, 200916 yr Dunno, cheese combines well with meat in some dishes Stuffed Chicken Breast Recipe with ham and swiss cheese and mushroom sauce. Prep Time: : Cook Time: :25 Ingredients: * 8 boneless chicken breast halves, skin removed * 1/4 teaspoon salt * 1/4 teaspoon pepper * 2 eggs, beaten * 1 cup milk * 4 slices (1 ounce each) cooked ham, cut in half * 4 slices (1 ounce each) Swiss cheese, cut in half * 1/3 cup all-purpose flour * 1 1/3 cup fine dry bread crumbs * vegetable oil * . * Mushroom Sauce: * 2 tablespoons butter Preparation: Place each piece of chicken between 2 sheets of wax paper or in food storage bag. Pound gently to flatten, using a rolling pin or smooth side of meat mallet. Sprinkle chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Combine eggs with 1 cup milk; dip chicken pieces in mixture. Place a piece of ham and a piece of cheese in the center of each flattened piece of chicken. Brush top of cheese slices with the milk and egg mixture. Fold ends over the ham and cheese; roll up, beginning with long side. Secure rolls with toothpicks. Dredge chicken in the 1/3 cup flour then dip in remaining milk mixture; roll in bread crumbs to coat well. Place chicken rolls on a plate; cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. Heat 1/2-inch of vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat. Fry chicken rolls for 20 minutes, turning frequently, until golden brown. Drain well. Serve with mushroom sauce. Serves 8. Mushroom Sauce Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; sauté mushrooms until browned. Add flour and stir until mixture is well blended. Gradually stir in hot milk and chicken broth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sauce begins to boil and thickens. Simmer, stirring frequently, over very low heat for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Makes about 1 cup of medium thick sauce. (sceadugenga get's holiday for introducing recipes into Bedlam.) Chicken and milk shouldn't be a problem - if one considers the origin of the prohibition (Leviticus) - but the fundamentalists will argue that one could accidentally include veal that looks like chicken ( ) and ham is definitely a no-no. But I like chicken cordon-bleu - there is a little French resto near my office that serves very nice grub - none of these fancy sauces that hide the basic materials, but just good, imaginative, well-cooked, well-served food. real food.
September 30, 200916 yr Was shopping in the supermarket yesterday - tiny little pot of Marmite - 80,000.- dong. (About US $ 4.50). Next to it a pot of (old-style) Vegemite at much the same price, but twice the size. Didn't buy either.
September 30, 200916 yr Kraft dumps controversial 'iSnack' name Kraft has bowed to a vicious public backlash and agreed to rename its new Vegemite product, iSnack2.0. The famous Aussie spread's creamier offspring received its controversial name on Saturday following a national competition. The brainchild of 27-year-old West Australian web designer Dean Robbins, iSnack2.0 was chosen from over 48,000 entries — but has been met with near-total negativity since the announcement was made during the AFL Grand Final. Kraft today confirmed that the much-despised name will be dumped. "The new name has simply not resonated with Australians … particularly the modern technical aspects associated with it," Kraft's head of corporate affairs Simon Talbot said. "At no point in time has the new Vegemite name been about initiating a media publicity stunt. "We are proud custodians of Vegemite, and have always been aware that it is the people's brand and a national icon." iSnack2.0, trading off popular youth products such as the iPod and iPhone, claims to be "the next generation Vegemite". Shoppers supported the new product before the naming controversy, buying almost three million "Name Me" jars since mid-June. But online and in newspaper letters to the editor, the public were united in criticising the iSnack title. Mr Robbins had explained his winning entry as being "a bit tongue in cheek really, the 'i' phenomenon and Web 2.0 have been recent revolutions, and I thought the new Vegemite name could do the same." Kraft said they would clear about 500,000 iSnack-labelled jars through supermarket shelves — estimated to be about two months of supply — before Australian and New Zealand customers will decide on another name through a popularity vote. More details on the voting system will be released on Friday. ninemsn
September 30, 200916 yr Author I see by the previous post it will be repealed. Ludicrous name. I have not seen it in NZ Supermarkets yet. This was in the NZHerald.co.nz. The marketing geniuses at Kraft have decided the new name for the iconic tar-like spread with the added fat of cream cheese will be ... not Spreadgemite or Ruddymite but ... Vegemite iSnack 2.0. No, it's not a joke or a deliberate promotional move to kick- start an online slagging-fest, it is 4real. Kraft says iSnack 2.0 was chosen to "to align the new product with a younger market" - and the "cool" credentials of Apple's iPod and iPhone. But the kids are jeering and spreading the derision. The name was decided by 48,000 entries in a public vote, proving that sometimes it is best to leave it to the professionals. Musta bin "New Osrtrilians" * * * For a laff or three, check out this site. Rubbishiing KRAFT. Big deal for AFL Grand Final. NOW I know what happened to the SAINTS. * * * http://www.crikey.com.au/2009/09/28/vegemi...et-in-contempt/

October 1, 200916 yr Sounds a bit like Arsenic, to me but what do I know about food, Im English Imagine what the other 47,999 ideas must have been like! Dave
October 1, 200916 yr So the ozzies can't actually mix the vegemite and cheese together, by themselves, they have to put it in a jar already mixed? Odd.
October 1, 200916 yr ^ No that's what the new(ish) American overlord owners of Vegemite think we need . The funny thing is, with the new stuff you still need to add vegemite to it to get a bit of flavour. Personally, If something works I don't know why they have to play with it.
October 1, 200916 yr So the ozzies can't actually mix the vegemite and cheese together, by themselves, they have to put it in a jar already mixed? Odd. Yeah, sort of like the American peanut butter and jelly in one jar. Or the coffee, milk, and sugar mixes that come in tins or tubes. Vegemite and cheese sandwiches have long been around.

October 3, 200916 yr SMH is a bastion of truth and accuracy[/u When compared with that Murdoch rag, the Telegraph.
October 3, 200916 yr MARMITE has always had more flavour/taste than VEGEMITE. You've only been saying that since the price of Vegemite went up! BTW, the new(ish) farang supermarket here in Patong stocks the small jars of Vegemite for - wait for it - 399 baht!

October 5, 200916 yr Summun must think Vegemite lovers are mentally challenged. Hmmmmm .......... smoke, fire
October 5, 200916 yr My Thai lady has developed a taste for vegemite. She brings out brekky with the words " today toast dum dum"
October 7, 200916 yr For anyone who gives a stuff, the new name for the product will be "Cheesybite".

March 19, 201015 yr Author At last I have found some, Bought it in one of those shops that sell close dated or out of date disposal stuff. FFSm it tasted like stale vegemite with rancid cheese mixed in. Called, "iSnack". Coulda bin "iShyte". REAL stuff still best.

March 20, 201015 yr Bought something called Marmite in a local shop here in Saigon. Made in NZ, came out the (plastic) jar black and oily - not the real stuff at all! Kiwis - keep your colour scheme for the Rugby team - that's where black and oily suit you. Leave our lovely brown, smooth-tasting Marmite alone. Only Marston Brewery know how to make the real stuff. (And bloody Sale beat Wasps. Thought they were mucky thirteen-a-side converts. Shouldn't be on the same field as the glorious Wasps)

March 21, 201015 yr Is there no trade descriptions act in NZ? Instead of calling it Marmite, call it "Black oily <deleted> - but still better than Vegeshyte" or something similar.
March 21, 201015 yr Author Is there no trade descriptions act in NZ?Instead of calling it Marmite, call it "Black oily <deleted> - but still better than Vegeshyte" or something similar. I like it better than Vegemite, I bought 8 x 500gram pots for $NZ3.50 each, some time back, disposal sale, grocery closing down. Sanitarium call it, "NZ's original yeast spread." Like motor companies, same name cars, models differ from country to country. Fords and Holdens have different, better specs in NZ than in OZ.. In OZ they are dumbed down.
March 21, 201015 yr I put it into toasted cheese sandwiches, where I can't see it. But still, when I look at what I've bitten, there is this really black line in the sarney, when I expect a dripping brown line. And talking about dripping ..... (Nah, that's another thread)
