PETITION TO THE HONOURABLE THE SPEAKER AND MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES ASSEMBLED IN PARLIAMENT: The petition of certain citizens of Australia asking the House to review the decision by Kraft Foods Limited to label Vegemite as Halal certified. We believe that such labeling is unnecessary in a Country where only about 1.5% of it's population are Muslim and that such labeling represents an encroaching Islamisation of Australia. We ask that the House direct Kraft Foods Limited, through legislation if necessary, to remove Halal labeling from Vegemite.

This is wrong I am 65yrs old. I have eaten vegemite nearly everyday of my life I miss it when I go overseas, sometimes I even take it with me so sorry to say I will now be buying Dick Smith from now on. This is a joke would they do things like that for me if I went overseas NO

I don't believe in a god and don't want to have even a small portion of the purchase price of my vegmite going to a minority religious group

I personally despise this form of cultural manipulation. Get it out of this Australian icon!

There should be a specific isle in the supermarket with all halal certified products.

Vegemite is off of my shopping list until halal certification removed, it is also off my many friends shopping lists who will add to this petition. I will not invest in any company connected with any halal certification. Enjoy your new incredibly low profitability.

It is racist to put this label on vegemite. It also means as a Catholic I can no longer eat it as it would be offensive to my religion.

I think it is totally illegal to pay religous tax on any of my foods. I will not buy any halal food and it should be stopped from companys supporting it as it should be banned immediately If i wanted to pay any money it will be for all aged , disabled, hospitals and nursing homes not some crap religon
