I have in my desk a jar of Vegemite.
Now, why some people would want to eat the stuff, I have no idea.
I couldn’t get it past my nose.
I keep it for sentimental reasons.

However, in Australia, they do eat it, some like it, and there does seem to be some health benefits for those who like it.

However, this just in from my friend, Georgie, who told me that in China, games organisers have told Australia it must source all food from within China.
I find this a little odd, because as of February this year, I read that Americans will be taking it’s own food to the games, citing the Chinese food was so full of steroids, they would all test positive on a test for steroids.

To be fair now, I wonder if this rule only applies to Australians, based on the U.S. plans to take their own food. I can see this to be a problem, Australians and Americans are used to liberties. Being able to eat one’s steroid free food shouldn’t be a non option.

This makes me think about how different the upcoming Olympics are going to be, even if it [Tibet, their political prisoners, issues of control, pollution, and lets not forget tainted food they send us]  mostly stays in the background.

I, for one, am less and less enchanted with the upcoming games. Articles of their hidden nuclear submarines base, how they treat their own people, and now, how they push their control onto other nations, is to wonder if the games are nothing compared to a global security?
