Here's something strange-- about two weeks into the jar of Vegemite Rosco

explain it-- a gustatory epiphany, I guess.  Like my taste buds had an "aha!"
experience, and suddenly when I took my first bite that day, it was like, "oh
yes, of course!"  I don't know how else to explain it, but I think it has
something to do with why children like the strangest foods if they've grown up
on them (they just don't consciously remember the point of "aha!").  I mean, I
liked it all right the first time I tried it, but it was still foreign--
suddenly it was different-- perhaps familiar-- I can't explain exactly.  Maybe
this has something to do with DaveL's Vegemite Zen.

Or maybe it the hallucinogens I snuck in there finally kickin' in! 8?)

ROSCO
