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

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

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.

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.

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.
