David, This is a true story. Oh, sorry Arnold for the hijack.
An Aussie by the name of Marcos Ambrose has been running the Nascar Nextel Cuo circuit the last few years and has introduced it to a lot of the Nascar people. Here is what it made of according to Marcos, " It's all the yeast extract from the beer floatation. The yeast sits on top. They skim it all off, they dry it and process it and burn it until it goes black. Then they squeeze it through a tube and there it is."
((Or that is their public image of how it is made))--But we know the truth.
There are some Nascar videos of people trying it for the first time. It is quite a video and good for a laugh or two. One reporter tried it and threw up right there on the spot.
About 3 minutes into the video one of the hosts tries Marcos' vegemite toast.
