Question Do you like the name for the new vegemite?

They have just announced that the name for the new vegemite (cream cheese and vegemite mixed together) will be "I-Snack 2.0".

What do you think of it?

Kraft Foods Australia/New Zealand on Saturday revealed the name of the new Vegemite: Vegemite iSnack2.0.

Launched in July 2009 as Vegemite 'Name Me', Vegemite iSnack2.0 is the result of a three-month nation-wide search that attracted over 48,000 name suggestions for the new Vegemite experience.

Kraft Foods Australia/New Zealand drew on Vegemite's history by asking Australians and New Zealanders to come up with the name for the new product, like it did in 1923 when Vegemite was first launched in this country.

Elleandmun i'm a mac nerd too but this is just ripping off apples "I" theme a little too much... Also what if apple wanted to come out with a calorie counting program, iSnack would have been the perfect name for that but kraft had to go and be a "me too"-er.

Surely there were better suggestions, like spreadgymite or cheese&mite.

So my long winded answer is no, I don't like the name
