Tom Hanks Just Gave Australians a Shock By Spreading Too Much Vegemite on His Toast
Tom Hanks is, without a doubt, one most beloved actors our his generation. It’s a shame that he caught Covid-19 in the midst of all the hysteria. Luckily, Tom found himself in Australia as he quarantined himself as he recovered from the deadly virus. It’s a beautiful country with warm people living in it. It’s just overall, a great place to get stuck in. But, Australian hospitality, can be shaken a bit. In one of Instagram posts, Tom Hanks decided to share his gratitude to the country that served as his home for the past couple of months. He posted an Australian-themed picture with a stuffed kangaroo holding the Australian flag, a tube of Vegemite, and two slices of toast with a generous helping of Vegemite. In the post, he said, “Thanks to the Helpers. Let’s take care of ourselves and each other. Hanx” But instead of good vibes and well wishes, Australians began freaking out about how much Vegemite was on his toast. You see, Vegemite has quite a strong salty taste. Most Australians only use a dab of it on their toasts because of this. So, imagine their surprise when they saw the actor’s breakfast. Some tried to be helpful to the beloved actor. They gave sound advice and tried to steer him away from that first bite. “The secret to Vegemite toast is 1/3 vegemite to 2/3 butter maximum,” one comment said. There are quite a few people, however, that were a bit more on the critical side. They called the meal, “disgusting”. Others thought it was “nasty”. But, ultimately, how Tom enjoys his toast is his business. If he likes it with a generous helping of Vegemite, then he’s got every right to that. The guy, after all, just recovered from a life-threatening disease.
