According to Coeliac Australia, roughly one in seventy Australians have coeliac disease, making the quest for gluten-free versions of iconic foods like Vegemite a major concern. So, does anyone know a gluten-free Vegemite that actually tastes like Vegemite, or will these alternatives always fall slightly short of the original's unique, salty flavour?

According to nutritionists, a small, thinly spread serving of Vegemite can be a healthy addition to a balanced diet due to its rich vitamin B content. The question, however, is whether a spoonful of Vegemite is healthy, and the answer is more nuanced, depending heavily on the quantity and frequency of consumption.
