Vegemite is banned in Victorian Prisons because sniffer dogs cannot detect the scent of drugs if concealed in Vegemite and has nothing to do with yeast content. Yeast is readily available to any inmate that works in a prison kitchen as the bread is baked on location by prisoners. 110.175.157.116 (talk) 07:27, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Not done. As the article states, Vegemite is banned in Vic prisons because it can be used to ferment illicit alcohol. I can find no sources that confirm the drug concealment claim. WWGB (talk) 07:53, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
A source that puts forth ludicrous claims with no support or explanation, as this source does, is evidently not reliable – at least not in cases where that happens.
Equivalent claims would be "unscrupulous horse breeders are using ground-up horsemeat as their breeding stock" or "horrific sweatshops exhuming bodies and putting them to work". TooManyFingers (talk) 21:32, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done: The source isn't claiming that vegemite can be used to ferment alcohol, the source is stating that vegemite was banned in prison and the reason the Victorian DOJ gave was because of the fear that it could be used to ferment alcohol. Cannolis (talk) 01:19, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please remove: "Vegemite does not contain any fat, added sugar or animal content." and replace it with: "Vegemite contains no fat, added sugar or animal content." It's just a little shorter. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 04:51, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think that is less clear. It could be interpreted as "Vegemite contains no fat. Vegemite contains added sugar." WWGB (talk) 05:30, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
One of the sources claimed to say vej ee mite (source 2) doesn't say that at all, it says vej uh mite or vej ih mite, and it doesn't even give vej ee mite as a possibility. What does Macquarie REALLY say for the pronunciation (as opposed to what you wish it would say)?
If the pronunciation has changed, unfortunately Wikipedia needs to give only the out-of-date version printed in reliable dictionaries, and wait for those reliable dictionaries to catch up. TooManyFingers (talk) 05:35, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please amend "Following the death of Frank Walker" in final paragraph of introduction to "Following the death of Fred Walker" - Fred Walker is the relevant Australian businessman who died in 1935, Frank Walker is the owner of National Tiles who is still alive and has no notable connection to Vegemite beyond being Australian.

The transcription is "/ˈvɛdʒimaɪt/ VEJ-uh-myte" The vowel in the second syllable differ in the IPA and phonetic respelling. I suggest it should be transcribed /ˈvɛdʒəmaɪt/ Kijetesantakalu042 (talk) 02:59, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
