	Don't I recall seeing on this list (Jessica? Ian? Christina?) that
this
	is a fairly common Oz trick to play on ign'nt 'Muricans? I could
swear
	this was mentioned, so it seems quite likely that he did indeed do
it on purpose.

Erm, well, yes - it is a rather common (and mean) Antipodean trick. Even the
most rabid fan would find it difficult to eat it as thick as peanut butter
(I'm not and it certainly makes me wince). The dude was definitely trying to
gross you out 'Lainie!
Spread thinly on small triangles of crustless hot buttered toast - now
that's another matter. Yum.
