Phew! Australians travelling to the US can breathe a sigh of relief. The alleged ban on Vegemite has been declared "False" by Snopes.
Snopes.com is a very good source for determining the veracity of so many claims made by email. In this case I was tricked by the source of the story - an Australian National news service. When I get emails of various scares or worries I do a quick Google search for "email hoax " and then some unique word within the story or email.
Thanks for the heads-up Gina!
