This reminds me when I met a man in Brussels. He was six foot four and full of muscle. I asked him if he spoke my language. He just smiled and gave me this on a sandwich.
That's Australian Army issue Vegemite. It came/used to come with the Australian MRE equivalent. When I was in the Army we would trade stuff for the diggers MRE's.

The wife fought for Napoleon III? That's hardcore!
In 1870, in the Franco-Prussian War, Napoleon III ordered one million cans of beef to feed his troops.[5] The task of providing this went to John Lawson Johnston, a Scottish butcher living in Canada.[5] Large quantities of beef were available across the British Dominions and South America, but transport and storage were problematic. Therefore, Johnston created a product known as 'Johnston's Fluid Beef', later called Bovril, to meet Napoleon's needs.[6] By 1888, over 3,000 UK public houses, grocers and dispensing chemists were selling Bovril. In 1889, Bovril Ltd was formed to develop Johnston's business further.<
its the greatest thing that ever came from waste water from beer production that ever got slapped between bread with cheese and stuck under the griller my friend.
half a teaspoon of it in the bottom of a jug of brown gravy is pretty damn good too...

Egg, cheese and vegemite is a brilliant combo.
