Is Vegemite in a glass jar or in a tube that they plan to bring over? In any case, I'd pack it inside the checked luggage in zip locked bags. You can't bring anything over 3 oz on the plane. We've had sun screen, jams, toothpaste and other items taken away from us because we've forgotten.
Vegemite is solid (like a thick paste), more solid than butter or peanut-butter, but very easy to melt in water (hydro-soluble) because has no fat. It's more solid than liquid because it has less humidity, only about 25%.
Spices and Condiments. Dried spices are a safe bet, but not if they're from the citrus family (lemon, lime, orange). Common condiments (ketchup, mustard) are allowed, as are marmite and vegemite.
Solid food items (not liquids or gels) can be transported in either your carry-on or checked bags. Liquid or gel food items larger than 3.4 oz are not allowed in carry-on bags and should be placed in your checked bags if possible.
Although Vegemite can be purchased in UK supermarkets, the jars are so small that they're hardly worth the trouble (and wouldn't last long) ;-) You can pack a normal sized jar in your checked baggage without any problems (I usually take the jar that's about 500gms, but I am a Vegemite addict).

You can carry food both in hand luggage and checked baggage. Keep in mind that food products should be contained in commercially branded packaging with the original seals unbroken. Some airlines may refuse the carriage of fresh products with short shelf-life, especially on a long-haul flight.
Because the TSA considers the nut spread a liquid, plane passengers must limit the amount they bring in their carry-ons. Like all other liquids, passengers are limited to 3.4 oz or less of peanut butter in their carry-on bag, but can also put the snack in their checked baggage.

So back to the Marmite. You are mostly allowed to take liquids onto the plane in your carry-on or hand luggage, if the volume of a single bottle or container is 100 ml or less and if those bottles or containers are all housed in a single clear plastic bag.
Vegemite is a nutritious and tasty natural food spread made by Kraft Foods. People everywhere enjoy this healthy and unusual product, though the brand originated in Australia. Produced since the early 1920s, Vegemite is created from leftover brewers' yeast extract, a byproduct of beer manufacturing.
Vegemite is a thick, dark spread extracted from the yeasty waste of the beer-brewing process, seasoned with celery, onion, salt, and some undisclosed extra flavors. Salty, umami-rich, with a hint of bitterness, Vegemite is an Australian obsession.
Vegemite is high in salt however, so it's best not to go eat it by the spoonful (not that that would be particularly delicious, anyway). "Vegemite does contain added salt with 207mg per teaspoon, so for those with, or at risk of, heart disease this may be an important consideration," Gudorf told HuffPost Australia.
