Apparently Vegemite is now a banned substance in the US… LOL:
THE United States has slapped a ban on Vegemite, outraging Australian expatriates there.
The bizarre crackdown was prompted because Vegemite contains folate, which in the US can be added only to breads and cereals.
And as my act of protest… Vegemite on toast for me:
