They’re Obsessed with Vegemite

In the popular song “Land Down Under,” there is a mention of a Vegemite sandwich. If you’re wondering what Vegemite is, it is Australia’s national food. It is a savory brown paste made primarily from yeast extract.

Australians commonly spread Vegemite on toast, use it as a sandwich filling, incorporate it into soups, or even enjoy it straight from the jar. Vegemite is nearly devoid of fat, suitable for vegetarians, and contains no added sugar. However, it is important to note that Vegemite is not gluten-free.
