Heard on the news that they have banned vegemite in the US&A because it contains folate, and that isn't allowed in cereal and bread products.
Folate is a vitamin B source, apparently, so it shouldn't be banned....
Comments? Views? Disgust of vegemite (like me!)? Post here!
is it some kind of butter o_O ?
Wtf is vegemite?
some kind of vegetable?
eww google it. its one of those disusting health products thats supposed to taste good. no wonder they banned it, it looks terrible
its got yeast in it and its disgusting and its really bitter and black i hate it lol but there is no reason to ban it
vegemite is otherwise known as marmite here in the uk. you either love it or hate it :)
Aaah, that stuff.. Ah well, americans have always been weird, I'm not surprised :icon6:
tbh i've never seen that stuff anywherein the us and i've been to a few states. so it probably got banned before it even got here lol.
rofl.
ban it cos it has folate?
people NEED folate, they did some research and babies who were fed bottled (less folate) water instead of tap water had their teeth going black and falling out...
Never seen that stuff before. As Konrow said, probably banned before it even got here.
Oo I've been in the USA for a short while and i've seen it loads of times, you lot must be blind but now that they have banned it, I guess i'll see it fade away.O.OQuote:

vegemite and marmite are nasty, but banning them is rediculouse XD
