Vegemite. It's a staple in the world of breakfast spreads, alongside Marmite, Nutella and peanut butter.
However, it's not exactly something that springs to mind when you're craving an icy cold treat in the summertime.
But Vegemite in Australia has chosen to defy the norms by creating their very own ice cream.
And not everyone is sure how they feel about it ...
Announcing the bizarre invention on Twitter Vegemite wrote, "Brace yourselves Australia ... it's time for VEGEMITE Icy Poles! #Chilled" along with a picture of the frozen snack.
