Product Insights
Vegemite is an Australian yeast‑extract spread that falls under the salty snacks category in the PNNS food groups. It carries a Nutri‑Score of D and is classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4), reflecting its high salt level of 8.25 g per 100 g and the presence of additives such as malt extract, colour (E150c) and flavourings. While it is vegan, halal and low‑FODMAP, offering B‑vitamins and unusually high fibre, the elevated sodium and processed nature mean it should be used sparingly.
