Vegemite Banned in the US
Just thought I should flag this in case any of our Aussie Dwellars decided to holiday in the States next year. Don't pack your Vegemite, it'll be confiscated!
From many sources, including here:
Quote:
THE US has banned Vegemite, even to the point of searching Australians for jars of the spread when they enter the country.
The bizarre crackdown was prompted because Vegemite has been deemed illegal under US food laws.
The great Aussie icon - faithfully carried around the world by travellers from downunder - contains folate, which under a technicality, America allows to be added only to breads and cereals.
