The Ashes series was drawn, but the Urn returns home to Australia. And in the spirit being good sports, Vegemite and Thinkerbell have sent a little gift of recognition to its Marmite friends over in the UK – the Mitey Ashes Urn, featuring the charred remains of a piece of Marmite on toast.

 

Says Matt Gray, senior marketing manager, Vegemite: “It was a Mitey battle and we kept the real Ashes, but hopefully the cremated piece of toast will adorn their mantle until we do battle again.”

The other urn might be the oldest trophy in England and Australia’s cricketing history, but Vegemite thinks this urn could live on even longer.
