(Australian PM) Albanese said: "I stand with the Aussie café owner."

"I can confirm here today that I am pro-Vegemite. I actually put a lot of Vegemite on my toast when I eat bread," he said.

"It's a good thing. I did hear the report. It's rather odd they're allowing Marmite, which frankly, is rubbish. Let's be clear: I'm pro-Vegemite, anti-Marmite. That's my position."

Well then, that’s good for Australians and Vegemite lovers. Ive never sampled it, but I know I hate Marmite.

I think. I’ve not had it since I was a kid, but I also hated coffee and stout and aniseed back then so…maybe it’s time to try again.
