Family Forum / Parenting / Mothers / October 2006Holy Vegemite!
www.masey.com.au/blog Seems that there is too much folate in Vegemite so the feds banned it's import. What is next! Not the sacred Tim Tam's! what about marmite - isn't it very similar?

Oh, did you see the toast with the marmite pix on them in the papers? - Lol > www.masey.com.au/blog > > Seems that there is too much folate in Vegemite so the feds banned it's > import. What is next! Not the sacred Tim Tam's! I read this on somethingawful yesterday. I've always wanted to try Vegemite, so I bought some from an ebay seller in AU. We'll see if the feds snag it at the border LOL. >> www.masey.com.au/blog >> [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > in > AU. We'll see if the feds snag it at the border LOL. well this is terrible news.... if you do get it, make sure you only use the merest spread, preferably on hot buttered toast. Do not slather on like jam ! let us know how you go chris >>> www.masey.com.au/blog >>> [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > well this is terrible news.... yeah, except it turns out that it's not true. while it is against FDA rules to import items with added folate, there is no crack-down on Vegemite. there is no "ban". if you bring it in for personal use, that's fine. it *may* be harder to get it from an importer (so i may not be able to find it at my supermarket anymore)... but if that turns out to be true, it'll be the fault of whomever started the rumour & called the feds attention to Vegemite in the first place :p lee  SignatureQuestion with boldness even the existence of god; because if there be one, he must more approve the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear. - Thomas Jefferson |
