Reviews, Recipes, and Random Slices of Life

So it wasn't just me. My hangover woke me up 2 times this morning. Once calling for vegimite and water (and asprin) and the other time simply my kidney crying out for help.

I imagine my hangover is going to wake me up in several hours again. Damned Hallowe'en parties. Damned pisco.

From:

Is vegemite the super-seekrit Ideal Hangover Food?

From:

It has more vitamin B than God. Like 2000% the US RDA. It really helps. And is really helping.

From:

In other words, yes! Duly noted, and added to the grocery list.

From:

Unfortunately it's not really imported into the US regularly (although you might be able to find it somewhere in Minneapolis). I order mine from www.thevegemitesite.com. Great stuff.

From:

Really? I thought that vegemite was pretty easy to find in the vegetarian/organic section. For some reason, I thought that marmite was the stuff that was impossible to find.

I mean, I haven't looked recently, but I thought I'd seen it.

Now, it's not officially banned, per se; but Kraft isn't currently sending it to the US.

From:

Only to breads and cereals? WTF? That's so bizarre...of course, so is the FDA in general.

From:

It's basically made out of beer leftovers. Those Krafty Australians!

(also, you can tell they're descended from criminals, because the price for the stuff is absolute robbery).

From:

So..beer gets all the bad stuff that would give you a hangover...and vegemite gets all the good stuff that would keep you from getting a hangover....

From:

It would be the same, good stuff if they didn't pasteurize the beer. It's why homebrew is so much better for you.

From:

So I should get a bottle of White Lightning for you for your next visit?

From:

as long as it doesn't make me blind it sounds good.

From:

Well, y'see, that's the catch....

From:

Okay, at this point I'm kind of replying to see what happens when we get to the edge.

Moonshine does have its place, but it's not jammed into my retina.

From:

Get to the edge? *Looks at page*

Ah. I see now.

Mostly, I just always try to reply to comments on my livejournal, unless they are blatantly not-in-need-of-reply.

It's nice and social-feeling, that way.

From:

that's silly. damned US government with their international plot to ban the full vitamin B complex unless you buy, you know, grains and such.

I had fun too, even though I was falling asleep by the end, probably cause I wasn't drinking enouhg ;) We need to that more often.

From:

I don't know that more alcohol will necessarily help one stay awake...but yeah, we should do that more often!

From:

Yes!

From:

I'm sorry, Chad, but you don't get to be a Hwa Rang Do lady! Nobody's going to believe that you're a lady, not even an honorary one! (Cue Hannah: "That ain't no lady; that's my husband!")

From:

I still don't know why you ladies didn't take Josh up on his offer.
