Judge rejects prisoner's human rights challenge to Vegemite ban
Original: Australian judge rejects prisoner's human rights challenge to Vegemite ban
An Australian judge has dismissed a prisoner's human rights challenge against a ban on Vegemite in the facility where he is held. The inmate had argued that preventing him from eating the iconic Australian yeast spread violated his rights. The ruling upholds the prison's restriction on the spread, often banned because its yeast can be used to ferment alcohol.
Why now: The case blends human rights law with an unusually quirky subject, Australia's national spread, making the court ruling newsworthy
