Okay, now...I have never had this...but it sounds pretty gross to me...Vegemite...apparently it is some sort of Austrailian delicacy...
Vegemite - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I think I will skip this...sorry, I know, you should try it before you say "uck"...brown, sticky, salty, gooey? No thanks.

Noooooo!!!

OK, I want to change your mind.

So:

1. Book a flight to Montreal. That's in Quebec. That's in Canada.
2. Go to the Westmount neighborhood.
3. Go to Patisserie de Gasgogne, which is down the street from where I used to live, on Sherbrooke St. West.
4. Order a chocolate croissant (slightly warmed) with a latte.
5. Go outside. You'll want to go in the spring or summer so that you can sit at one of the little tables outside. Eat your croissant. Drink your latte. People-watch.
6. Come back to the forum and try to tell me that you said "yuck" to that croissant. You won't be able to do it.

I hereby invent "croissant hockey"! No puck.....you get on the ice and then a croissant is thrown out on the ice....you play hockey as usual, and slap-shot that croissant to smithereens.
Everyone wins.
