The world's richest source of vitamin B has been banned in the US.

I'm laughing so hard I can't stop. I think the best part of the article is:

Former Geelong man Daniel Fogarty, who now lives in Calgary, Canada, said he was stunned when searched while crossing the US border recently.

"The border guard asked us if we were carrying any Vegemite," Mr Fogarty said.

Australians are being searched in case they're smuggling vegemite into the US alkjdflakjfdlafHAHAHA.

I don't really know what Vegemite is, but, uh, is it laced with COCAINE or something?

they've banned it for added folate acid... which apparently can only be added to breads and cereals in the US. which flabbergasts me, because it's a vital ingredient (pardon the pun) in helping to prevent spina bifida

But... like... I don't get it, folate acid =/= crack cocaine, right? WHY IS MY COUNTRY SO PHYSICALLY RETARDED LIKE THIS? Jeez.
