The Voice Australia coach Jason Derulo slams extremely popular Aussie food staple: ‘It wasn’t’

Jason Derulo lives in Sydney, Australia while filming the local edition of The Voice.

While the American singer has enjoyed some of the local delicacies, there is one that he is not a fan of at all.

On Sunday’s episode of The Voice Australia, the 33-year-old was encouraged to try the popular local toast spread Vegemite.

With his eyes closed and wearing an Outback cork hat, Jason was fed Aussie food by his fellow judges Rita Ora, Jessica Mauboy and Guy Sebastian.

The pungent, salty yeast mixture is a favorite of many Australians, but Jason was shocked.

“Woah,” he said after sniffing the spread, with his co-star Rita assuring him, “It’s not bad at all.”

Jason flinched as the Vegemite spread over his teeth, clearly disliking the taste.

“I’m not going to lie, it wasn’t that Vegemite. I was like “Oh hell, they just fed me shit on live television,” he said.

Jason was more impressed with Arnott’s Tim Tam chocolate chip cookies, which he called “incredible” and said he was “loved.”

It comes after the star revealed that there is no competition when it comes to whether the coffee is better Down Under or in the US.

“I think so, I really do,” he said The Daily Telegraph when asked if Australia has better coffee than its home country.

Jason spent time in Sydney during filming and told the publication he is enjoying his stay.

“I have to sink my teeth into the routine and culture of Australia,” he explained.

“I’ve always really loved Australia, but this is the first time I’ve spent some time there, so being able to go to a gym that I enjoy going to, and have favorite restaurants, that’s really cool.”
