There was a time that vegemite was even saltier, but they cut down on the salt content, and I guess felt they had to add Preservative 220 or sulphur dioxide after that. I didn't realise, I hadn't read the jar, until Effie pointed it out, THANKS, I am really allergic to this preservative, I guess the tiny amounts that I would have in a day weren't enough to obviously effect me but maybe it has added to some health problems I have. It looks like I'll be switching to Marmite, for the B12 too, I can get used to the slightly different taste - I hope.
