Henry Spencer, on why you can't buy vegemite in the US:
"Importing it violates EPA, OSHA, and ITAR regulations. Plus, exporting it
is considered an act of war in some quarters. We won't even mention
crackers of mass destruction... :-) "

It's a cracker topping AND an industrial solvent!

INSANE!

Of course it's not safe to eat! But neither are potato crisps and bacon.

Your Vegemite remarks reminds me of this site.

That's not my remark. It's sort of a running gag in the newsgroup.
