[plug] Re: [Completely OT] Vegemite banned in the U.S.A.

Relevancy to Linux??

Isn't Vegemite owned and made by American parent company Kraft.
So banning it from America makes and American conglomerate less rich.

Sorry nothing for me to get ranting about here.
It's just a spread, I like kraft peanut paste, but you wouldn't see me
peaking out about it in linux forums if they ban the stuff in America.
