But not *originally* a Kraft Product. Foreign ownership of 'Australian'
brands is an ongoing issue in Australia, with some local companies heavily
promoting the Australian Owned nature of their operations.

There is a move to produce a product called 'Ozemite' based on one of the
original vegemite recipes (it has changed over time). For more information,
see www.dicksmithfoods.com.au
