Vegemite (an Australian food spread made from leftover brewers’ yeast extract) has had several “veggie might” puns. This was posted to Reddit—Jokes on January 9, 2017:
“A fruit probably wouldn’t travel to Australia, but a veggie might.”
Wikipedia: Vegemite
Vegemite (/ˈvɛdʒᵻmaɪt/ vej-ə-myt) is a thick black Australian food spread made from leftover brewers’ yeast extract with various vegetable and spice additives developed by Cyril Percy Callister in Melbourne, Victoria, in 1922 and currently owned by Mondelez International.
A spread for sandwiches, toast, crumpets and cracker biscuits as well as a filling for pastries, Vegemite is similar to British, New Zealand and South African Marmite, Australian Promite, MightyMite, OzEmite and D Swiss Cenovis.
