Price: 7 AUD (Typical Woolworths/Coles shelf price for the 380g jar (best per-gram value size))

Where to buy: Any Coles, Woolworths, Aldi, IGA

• 'Done right' means SCRAPED thin on heavily buttered toast — the butter is not optional. Tourists who trowel it on like Nutella are the punchline of a national joke.
• Australian-owned again since Bega bought it back from Kraft/Mondelez in 2017 — locals are proud of that.
• Vegemite is a GST-free basic food, so there's no TRS refund to claim — it's just cheap.
• Fine through US/Indian customs as commercially packaged food; jars over 100ml go in checked luggage.
