Vegemite Launches Personalised Christmas Care Package To Send To Your Overseas Mates

Everyone knows that Vegemite is up there with one of the most Aussie food products you can buy.

While it's very much a love it or hate it type spread, you can't deny that it makes you feel tru-blue when you spread it (not too much, not too little) over your toast.

But people living overseas don't have the luxury of popping down to their closest store and picking up a jar of the black stuff. Unless they've smuggled it in from the motherland to where they are now, they usually have to put up with heavily inferior spreads like Marmite.

But Vegemite wants to change that this year.

Vegemite

The company has launched its personalised Christmas care package for people who are missing that classic taste.

"The perfect present for those who are missing the taste of Australia, our Mitey Aussie Care Package includes a collection of your favourite VEGEMITE items, including a personalised 380g Vegemite jar! Send to friends and loved ones overseas this Christmas," the press release says.

"Set includes a Personalised 380g Vegemite Jar, Vegemite Socks, Vegemite Mug, 220g Vegemite Jar and Arnott's Shapes Vegemite & Cheese."

It'll set you back $49.95 and a further $15-30 for postage if you're sending it to someone in New Zealand, Canada, US, UK.

The best part is you'll be able to get a jar of Vegemite with your bloody name on it.
