Vegemite
 
Well, it seems the US has banned any Vegemite from hitting their shores, fools dunno whats good for em i say!

Apparently it is now illegal under US food laws, due to it having folate in it, something that is only permitted in breads and cereals

They are now searching Aussie travellers to ensure it is not being brought into the country :sad: :sad:

We are brilliant, I tell you. So now they search passengers for Vegemite and bomb making supplies. My tax $$ at work.

There's no accounting for taste?

Drop your suitcase and step slooooowly away from the Vegemite!

:yikes:

Hmmmmmmm.... I wonder what happened to all the Vegemite that Sharni sent us in the old "Pixie's Box #1"?

It's just sitting there, waiting for The Day when it shall rise and bring to the benighted foreigners the health and taste benefits of Australian gastronomic culture, full of good things so long as you discount a touch of folate on it's march towards total domination of the breakfast spread universe.

Dyna-mite
Vege-mite

We are just trying to keep the mites out of the country. :rofl:

While I think it is rather idiotic, I think most people in the US that have even heard of vegemite only did so because of an '80s song by Men At Work. :p

/me sings along!!

wyndhy 10-23-2006 06:53 PM

ridiculous.
there may not be too many people in the u.s. that eat it, or have even heard of it but i'll bet there's a few from down under that will have one less thing to remind them of home.

Oldfart 10-23-2006 09:11 PM

Too right.

Not an act of brotherhood and friendship, that's for sure.

:eew: After my recovery :yikes: :faint: ………………………… a sample was submitted to a local lab:huh: for testing. They forwarded it to the Center for Disease Control, :sad: who sent some to the Center for Biological Weapons Research. :starwars: Last I heard, Homeland Security:jester: was putting together an inspection team to track it down, so don't worry. They'll never find it.
