E.coli outbreak: Danish Marmite ban “not so stupid after all”
Less than two weeks ago, the food world was rocked as Danish officials banned the sale of Marmite, a British-manufactured spread rich in Vitamin B. According to authorities, foodstuffs containing high levels of nutrients must first be approved to avoid overdosing on certain vitamins which may lead to excessive healthiness.
British lovers of the salty spread, comparable to the Australian delicacy Vegemite, were outraged at the perceived persecution of the world’s most equally loved and hated food product in a country they would not normally have given two hoots about.
