10 Things You Won’t Believe Were Sold On eBay

6. Manky Bit Of Vegemite Toast Bitten By One Direction's Niall Horan

The young boys of One Direction have turned our population of teenage girls into rampant zombies. 1D fever reached a new peak last year, when Niall Horan chomped a bit of Vegemite toast on Australian TV, then spat it out in disgust. The world's biggest boy band were promoting their debut album, Up All Night, when the soggy bit of bread sold for an astonishing £65,000. A half-eaten triangle of toast going for $100,000: you could buy a two-bedroom apartment for that. Hell, you could fly to Australia and consume all the Vegemite your heart desired with that much money. If you've given up all hope for humanity after reading this, you may be reassured in the fact that all the money from the chomped bit of toast went to Australian charity YoungCare. The listing read: "The item is perishable and although we will package it so that tampering is evident, we do not advise that it is consumed. We will not be including the mouthful that Niall spat out - because that's just gross." What a disappointment.
