THE US has banned Vegemite, even to the point of searching Aussies for jars of the spread as they enter the country.
The bizarre condiment 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 Down Under -- contains folate, which under a technicality, the US allows only to be added to breads and cereals.

LMAO. I saw that on Sunrise this morning... and it's still hilarious!
Probably one of the stupider decrees I've heard. Maybe we can convince Kraft to make a special "travellers' US safe" version. Just like just about everything else you'll just have to buy the "stupid law" version if you want to travel overseas
