Barb,

You won't know "hard core" until you've had VEGEMITE for breakfast! That's what Australian kids are brought up on and they LOVE the stuff.

Dear Nellly

Nothing quite like vegemite on toast for breakfast. The formula has changed over the years and it is now full of fillers but when it was the real McCoy, I used to eat it by the spoonful

,

What is in Vegemite these days that doesn't belong in it? I thought it was basically just brewer's yeast and salt, plenty of salt.

But it might have electrolytes in the right proportions because many Australians swear it makes them feel good (Vegemite is good for you! everybody knows that!), and most Aussies crave it like crazy when they're away from home. I once made a big Australian bully cry, here in Paris, just by waving a jar of Vegemite in front of his nose and by telling him he couldn't have any!

Dear Nelly

Wish I knew, it used to be only yeast extract and salt but now the list is quite large

Yeast Extract, salt, mineral salt 508 (whatever that is), Malt extract (from barley), natural colour (150d) Preservative (220) vegetable extract, niacin,thiamine, riboflavin , folate.

It is now 19.5% carbohydrate, none before ( that is the filler I guess)

Salt is 5.2%(roughly)
