We asked readers: Other than spreading it on bread, what other uses have you found for Vegemite?

Craig Strong - Vegemite is made from beer, it's made from the leftover brewers yeast that is drained from the vats in the brewery.
Jeff Crager - What a ridiculous thing! Why stop at Vegemite? They should also ban fruit ,fruit juice, sugar, soft drink and bread yeast. All of that stuff could potentially become alcohol as well.
Debra Callaghan - Put on splinters then cover with band aid works as a drawing ointment learnt this from fisherman
Adam Gee - Why the surprise. They brew it in jail why wouldn't they take the idea home with them to the dry areas.
Matthew Schirmer - Can't believe they want to ban a product that can make alcohol so does that mean potatoes are baned to as it can make vodka?
Dexter Dexter - I use my vegemite for toast!!
