I have it from a realiable sorce that the reason for the ban of sales is that Kraft won't let the FDA see the details of the manurfacturing process. I didn't realise it was such a big secret. It's mushed up yeast, for pities sake. This still doesn't explain the ban on bringing in personal use stuff. There's nothing in it that should be banned from import. (If you don't like the taste, don't eat it. I feel the same about anchovies.... I just don't eat them). The saga continues. And we still aren't happy. Philip ok.
