Its a spread derived from yeast extract. Very rich source of Vitamin B without any unhealthy side-effects (no added sugar,etc). A cultural icon in Australia.

If the link gives you an error page, delete everything before the second http in the address bar and hit enter. It will take you to the Nutrition page on the Vegemite web site. Or just Google.

That's what makes me scratching my head wondering about. It seems to me that Australians have a thing into this Vegemite thing, even though the rest of the world hate it.

Vegemite is a bit like anchovies. Bit of an acquired taste. Those that don't like it hate it.

the following food items give you instant friends and entry at an "ex-pats" party when travelling overseas:

vegemite

Very true. Never liked the stuff as a kid. Acquired the taste in the Army when they put tins of it in 10 man rat packs to make the biscuits palatable. Just goes to show, you'll eat anything if you're hungry enough.

Marimite is available @ Amazon, and speciality grocers. The reason it is largely unavailable in US is becoz it was wrongly assumed that it is illegal in US per FDA as it has folic acid , and the belief is only breads and cereal can have such folic acids in non vegetable products as it causes problems when consumed @ levels more than 1000mg per day. Considering the British and Aussies haven't mastered the American language and mentality its obvious vegemite is dangerous to ones mental state. We have evidence enough. In fact Australians are or used to be screened for vegemite at customs (though it was not a law).
