I was a little suspect about the border thing, thought it was probably a misunderstanding.
But the ban on importing for commercial sale seems real. They talked to some shops in the US that used to import it and they were first cut down to only importing the very small jars and now they can't import any.
ANd from another article:
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.
And I did a search and yes, Joanna Scott is a spokesperson for Kraft.
