About Cheesymite scroll
Cheesymite Scroll is a popular baked snack in Australia and New Zealand, consisting of a swirl of cheese and Vegemite (a savory yeast extract spread) encased within soft bread dough. This fusion of ingredients delivers a distinct umami flavor while being relatively calorie-dense due to its cheese content and white flour base. A single scroll typically provides a source of carbohydrates from the bread, protein and calcium from the cheese, and some trace minerals like B vitamins from the Vegemite. However, it is high in sodium and should be consumed in moderation.
Health Benefits
- Provides calcium from the cheese, essential for maintaining strong bones and teeth.
- Contains B vitamins (such as thiamine and riboflavin) from Vegemite, which support energy metabolism and brain function.
- Delivers protein from cheese, which helps with muscle repair and overall growth.
Dietary Considerations
Selection and Storage
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days or refrigerate to extend freshness by a few days.
