Kb would like this one

THE US has banned Vegemite, even to the point of searching Australians for jars of the spread when they enter the country.

The bizarre crackdown was prompted because Vegemite has been deemed illegal under US food laws.

The great Aussie icon - faithfully carried around the world by travellers from downunder - contains folate, which under a technicality, America allows to be added only to breads and cereals.

Australian expatriates in the US said enforcement of the ban had been gradually stepped up and was now ruining lifelong traditions of Vegemite on toast for breakfast.

Kraft spokeswoman Joanna Scott said: "The (US) Food and Drug Administration doesn't allow the import of Vegemite simply because the recipe does have the addition of folic acid.''

The US was "a minor market'' for Vegemite, she said.

will its no biggy the U.S Food & Drug get bribs all the time 800.000.00 it be ok then pay them off it can be sold in the U.S then.

all the big time drug companys pay them to make up all type of junky drugs to be sold in stores in the U.S.

Vegemite is lable as a Drug i think so if your people pay the U.S drug company pay off the Feds "Food and Drug" its in a small way it a bribs.

no joke all one have to do is pay USD-800.000.00 lic-fee U.S Feds Food & Drug. (bribs)

think the rate may have gone up by now days, that was on the news 2yrs ago. they was talking about new type of drugs to use in Hospitals to save lives and the new drugs to be made were block reason high Feds F&D lic-fee to get it ok the new drug did not make that much to get in return to cover it so it was never release to the drug store or the hospitals to be use.
