@@Nickwillfixit Have you tried Vegemite? I'm not sure if it's still available here in the UK - I think I tried it back in the 90s. It tastes a lot blander than Marmite and the colour doesn't help - it has a rather insipid light brown look. Of course it's just a by-product of brewing, which I assume happens around the world, so it's surprising other countries don't have their versions. Whatever, be sure to get Eli to taste Marmite to see if she loves it or hates it!
Great video dear girl (jong lady). Take care that you don't go too far with ridiculeering your country, otherwise President Putin will have you killed.
PAVLOVA!! Eli the national dessert of both Australia and New Zealand is the Pavlova. Yes! this dessert was created and named in honour of the Russian ballerina, Anna Pavlova, who toured both countries in 1926. Please try before you leave.
Pavlova is the same as classic Russian dessert called Beze. There are many different variations including the one with berries which is the same like Pavlova. I was shocked to learn that Aussies/New Zealanders think they created it. It was created in France, about a 100 years before 1926.

Forty years ago, most Australians didn't eat kangaroo meat. It was mainly used as pet food. Then I went to Europe and saw people eating kangaroo meat as a delicacy. Even had friends asking how to cook kangaroo meat to which I told them to feed it to their dogs. They were shocked as it was quite expensive. Nowadays, it's commonplace in Australian supermarkets but I still wouldn't eat it. I think it's more popular with the younger generation. By the way, I was shocked when I found out that Europeans ate horse and deer meat. It's probably the same thing.
For the 'TimTamSlam' to work, they have to be very cold, so the chocolate stays solid in order to draw the coffee up through. I promise you will love it if you do it that way. Cheers from Cairns !!!
Marmite girl here. I think it depends on what you grew up with. As well as on toast, I put a teaspoon in casseroles to add flavour. It's great for meat dishes particularly.
Thank you for your wonderful videos on the Russian Federation and now Australia.Your work shows how much we citizens of many nations have in common.Well done!
I must admit, that was pretty entertaining. Your ability to pester people to get the answers you want is very impressive. I feel like this episode needs a follow up
Nice. Good overview of some of our foods - the word is fusion for our cuisine these days. Of so many world cuisines made with great, fresh local produce and given an Aussie fusion to it all. Glad you seem to be enjoying yourself. Well done to Bec as well for showing you around.
Australia is not just an immigrant country, there are various indigenous groups who have inhabited the continent for 40,000 years. There are many types of foods from the various indigenous groups depending on their locations in the country, from coastal regions, rivers, mountainous, flatlands, desert regions and city folk. In fact there are a number of high end restaurants that specialize in cuisine based on the diversity bush tucker ingredients.
So cool to see you in Smith St Fitzroy, on the video I mean, excellent report Eli!! I must say that having been born & lived most of my considerable life in Australia, I was amazed to find that my favourite Russki vlogger was to introduce me to a new nut!! The bunya obviously.....
It's so funny watching other Australians talking about our food. Potato cakes aren't made from mashed potato, they are slices of potato dipped in batter and fried. I've had kangaroo a few times but I'm like you and feel weird about eating it. You've done some really cool things while you are here, good on you.
Even the trees might kill you in Australia 😆 I had no idea ! They got some awesome trees in Australia. Fun video again, Eli. It's fun having friends in new places.
Hey, Eli! When you return, please come and stay with me and my wife. We can show - and explain - SO MUCH MORE about our food, culture, history, geography, geology, than you got from the people you travelled with!
Wow, watching a Russian girl in Australia try Australian food is such a fun cultural exchange! It's awesome seeing her reactions to Vegemite, Tim Tams, and lamingtons. Food really does bring people together! 🇦🇺🇷🇺
The guy in the song "Down Under" while touring Belgium, just happened to conveniently have a Vegemite sandwich on him at the time he met the man in Brussels 😂😂
It's a real hoot watching you adventure around and try new things. I like the plan of staying in a place for an extended period and getting to know the culture and cuisine and geography. I like to do the same thing when I travel but usually can't be gone for more than nine or ten days.
I was born in Australia. I've lived here almost all my life, I never eat kangaroo meat nor emu or crocodile meat. I don't eat gluten free either. Australian food is as varied as the people here. We're from all over the world. And we eat whatever suits us & not just what is sold here. I'm in Sydney which is a very multicultural city. Yes, meat pie is something very Aussie. We love it. Try a reputable brand or home made one, & you'll love it. Oh yes, Lamingtons are goooood. Hot Cross buns, very good esp when they're warm & cut in the middle with a spread of butter. Tim Tams are very aussie too... And delicious; but not too much at once. Ahhh yes the 'sausage sizzle' from Bunnings... . They usually sell them on the outside of the front entrance of the store. You can usually smell it from afar. So nice. Melon skiing? Never seen it nor done it! Ahhh yes, burgers that include beetroot... & BBQ sauce. Yummy! Ahhh yes, the 'shapes' (crackers). Also quite Aussie! I've never heard of Bunya. Never eaten it either. The vine yards are so good! If you can go to any of them & experience the wines, they're great. Fish & chips is so good. NO... every fish of the 'fish n chips' is NOT always shark. Yeah, they use 'Flake' or 'Hake' (when it's shark), but lots use different other types of fish too. Potato cakes? (That's what Victorians call them). Here in Sydney they're called 'Potato Scallops'. We also have battered & fried pineapple & banana... Oooooh they're so good! Yes, Australia has a VERY multicultural cuisine. European, Middle Eastern, Lots of Asian-types, Latin American... everything! Glad you enjoyed your stay here.
You really want to travel to Australia ? It's not really touristy, and excessively hot and they don't have none of the old world culture or exotic culture neither. The outdoors are tough too. Much better to visit Europe.
The TimTam straw thing does work, I have done it. You need to bite off both ends, not just the corners, watch out though because the TimTam gets soft quick.
That was such a great video, kicked out of woolies to going to Bunnings for the sausage sizzle. I was laughing so much. You got to try so many good things, you missed out on fairy bread though. It's bread with butter then sprinkles put all over, the more you add the better it is
@@ElifromRussia omg no way you actually repiled, day made! 😁 fairy bread is more of a kids food you eat growing up so everyone has fond memories of it eating it even into adulthood
As an Australian, I found it quite entertaining to see our 'traditional' foods being tasted by someone from another country. You are very adventurous, Eli. I hope one day to be able to sample Russian foods. (P.S. I couldn't bring myself to eat kangaroo either.)
You'll sample a russian missile first...why are you encouraging this obvious mole and pro kremlin propaganda. She needs to be banned....being a Russian is a good enough reason. Ask her to condemn her countries killing of children in ukraine and you'll see her real face.
@@rodneyherron5662 being a Russian. It’s a literally Nazism. Blaming people for their nationality. It’s not her fault. Or u are just a bot(your registration date). Do u think Navalny, Kara-Murza, Katz and etc are criminals?
Kangaroo, as portrayed on a comedy TV show once, is "Prime Australian Beef, a jump ahead of the rest !" That was based on a news story where Kangaroo meat had been being substituted for beef for awhile and no-one noticed. Obviously it was a breach of labelling laws and someone had to say "sorry" afterwards. I think in some states for awhile there, 'Roo meat wasn't allowed to be sold "for human consumption" but was allowed to be sold in supermarkets, if labelled as "pet food only". I recall supermarkets having 'roo meat in the fridge/freezer packaged up as Dog Food.
Also a big marmite fan. I add it to my sauces, soups, stews and gravies to give them an umami flavour. I think the UK store own brand yeast extracts usually have a more similar texture to Australian vegemite. Marmite has a uniquely high viscosity liquid texture that I have not seen with other yeast extracts. On a whole, yeast extracts tend to be more of a paste.
@@christianmusso629 No, that started with the Russophobic ultranationalists take-over of Kiev. Led by Right-Sector who claim credit for the Odessa Trade Unions Building massacre; subsequently commemorated by torch-lit processions. No one has been prosecuted. Former Right-Sector leader Dmytro Yarosh was hired as advisor to the commander-in-chief of Ukraines armed forces Zaluzhnyi - who's been photographed amongst far-right paraphernalia several times. In addition, 4.5 million people have been killed in post 9/11 war zones; and 38 million people have been displaced. Two thirds of the world's population have endured sanctions. Let's not forget US unconditional support for and complicity in Israeli atrocities.
Oh yeah, the Russians love to share their culture with neighbors. Espacially with the smaller and weaker ones. The best known Exchange sites for Russian culture can be visited in Bucha and Izyum in Ukraine.
@@sirokasmr308 I'm indiffirent about Russians as nation. I dont like murderers, rapists, invaders and criminals This time they happen to be Russians. This is a huge difference. And I watch her channel to be up to date with Russian soft propaganda which is at least as dangerous as the first line Kremlin's propaganda. So simple is that.
"Fish and Chips" is actually an even more popular Take-away food in New Zealand than in Australia. And whereas fish-and-chip shops can be hard to find in Australia, in NZ a suburb will likely have several F&C shops ! There are a range of choices for the fish used, with shark being just one option. Those choices vary around Australia, and NZ, depending on what fish is available.Australia has more Burger joints, mostly from international franchised chains, and Chicken Takeaways, from the likes of Red Rooster, and Australian franchised chain.
@@peterwilliams2152 Indeed I do ! (explanation for overseas folks.... Although the Australian and New Zealand accents are "similar" and have much in common, including certain vocabulary, there are slight differences. The differences are most pronounced with some vowels, so Aussies often make fun of their Kiwi cousins, with words sounding like "Fush and Chups" , when an Australian hears them. We have maintained close contact and citizens without criminal records can move freely and work in either country. Many folks have relatives living on both side of The Tasman Sea (known as "the ditch") the 1,000miles or 1,600km of water separating both countries. In the 1800's, early European settlement, NZ was considered part of the Colony of New South Wales. By 1900/1901 the time Australia's independent colonies became one federated nation, NZ had already gained independence. NZ was offered a chance to become joined with the new nation of Australia back then, but chose to remain its own independent nation. However a "back door" exists in Australia's constitution to allow NZ (or other places, such as Papua New Guinea etc) to join and become part of Australia, at any future time (subject to a range of conditions and referendums etc being met). Australia and New Zealand often squabble over who invested Pavlova (a large meringue dessert) and who breeds the fastest Race Horses. During past wars, sometimes Kiwis served with Australian Military units as de-facto Australians.
@@KiwiCatherineJemma Only NZ has the ability to join Australia as an "original State". Papua and New Guinea were territories governed by Australia post 1901 and the Australian Constitution and are not mentioned in the Constitution. Interestingly, Fiji was originally considered as part of the proposed Commonwealth.
Tip on Vegemite for non Aussies. We don't actually put it on thick. We mostly do that as a prank (Not sorry, I'd do it again). Best way (for me) to eat it is on 'Turkish Bread' out of a toaster. Sourdough is also good. Use twice as much butter as normal and half as much Vegemite as you might expect. Just enough to colour the top. It should not be black! THEN it's great. Vegemite is packed full of B vitamins which are used to metabolize carbs so I would always eat Vegemite toast when training for sporting events for breakfast. I thought it as 'morning vitamins'.
Colac is dairy country and is famous for Bulla ice cream and other cream products. I constantly enjoy Bulla Crunch ice cream poles (on a stick) which come in various flavours like double chocolate, strawberry, vanilla, honeycomb, caramel and coffee, they are coated with a mix of chocolate and biscuit crumbs (hence the double chocolate). Colac also has a nice lake and it is close to vulcano country where in some places the ground is made of scoria (red coloured honeycombed rocks) used for footpaths and garden decoration and walls, it was also crushed fine and used on tennis court surfaces.
I'm from Gold Coast Australia. So funny seeing you trying all the different food. We all have Vegemite on toast from little kids. We never eat kangaroos, just couldn't. Love your vids
Exploding timtams is a thing and done it my entire life. Use regular timtams. Bite off opposite corners, suck the coffee through it FAST as it melts and can fall into the cup.
Another good fun video, and fortunately you have found some locals to help you find your way, and avoid the rediculous stereotypes. I am happy to see you enjoying my country. I think Bec should start her own channel and do some more videos. She has a distinctive presence on film, and I think she could be a great success doing experience videos. She is natural and entertaining without any pretence.
That is cute that you couldn’t eat any kangaroo or wallaby meat. I have been watching your RUclips videos for a while now. Have you considered coming to Tasmania?
Roo meat isn't healthier than beef or lamb - its can be quite tough when the kangaroos get older. I'd love to show you how we farm in Australia while you are here! Im 3 hours north of Melbourne
It’s not the norm, but as an Australian who grew up on Vegemite, I do eat the stuff by the spoonful. It’s also great on a ham and cheese croissant as it gives it a nice salty flavour.
@@danielbecker4365 I'm American, we have it at our local grocery store, and I always have it on hand. I also have Marmite, I toss a spoonful of it with potatoes before roasting them. Vegemite would probably work too, but Marmite is a little gooier.
Eli's eating fish and chips in Victoria which is Southern Oz, shark, known as "flake" is very common, and quit tasty, but she didn't spend much time in Queensland and try the holey trinity of reef fish. They are way better than barramundi, and if you come to Australia and go to tropical Northern Queensland (about 2,500 kms North of Melbourne), and don't try one of these you haven't lived. They are 1. Sweetlip 2. Coral Trout and my favorite 3. Red Emperor Australia, the lifeboat of the planet
Hi Eli, the Vegemite, isn’t strictly Australian, we have it here in the UK too, except we call it marmite. It’s an acquired taste, and has you mentioned it’s spread very thinly, mainly on toast. 😊
Marmite is a poor imitation of Vegemite even if it was in UK first. The Aussie version knocks the Brit version for six. Known plenty of Marmite eaters switch to Vegemite but never met/heard of a Vegemite eater switching to Marmite. I tried some once (as is cheaper than Vegemite but only used it twice before throwing the small jar away). Used it twice just to make sure first impressions were not biased.
Hi Eli I'm really enjoying your perspective of Australia. IMHO you are covering so much of it really well. Brings back so many memories... When I left Australia 36 years ago, kangaroo meat was strictly dog food. Since then it seems to have been heavily pushed as an alternative to beef. Never tried it. It used to be said there were two kinds of Australians - Vegemite babies or Marmite babies. I understand that Marmite was the original yeast extract spread (made in England) and a knock-off called 'Parwill' appeared, a gimmicky name to help promote the stuff with the pun 'Marmite but Parwill' (get it?). Eventually common sense prevailed and it was renamed to 'Vegemite'. These days the Marmite of my youth is made in Christchurch, New Zealand but Vegemite is still Australian made. If I look far enough I can even find it in Canada - at a stiff price. I will eat it if I can't find NZ Marmite, but I brought back industrial quantities of Marmite when I was down there some years ago. Despite their expiry dates Marmite and Vegemite seems to last forever, so I'm fine for now. I really can't stand British Marmite - yuk! Like fish and chips, meat pies were originally imported from England and yes, they sort of are a national dish. They often used to be derided colloquially as 'maggot bags', at least in Sydney. Back in the 70s or 80s there was a law in New South Wales that required a minimum meat content in the filling (was it 27%?) and on the rare occasions they were tested, some pies repeatedly failed to meet even that limited requirement. Not too many of us were surprised. I see you are eating a round pie. Do square pies still exist? I miss lamingtons, vanilla slices and Napoleon cake. I probably started putting on weight in primary school by quaffing cream buns from the cake shop across the road for lunch. Arnott's biscuits were the best, especially Monte Carlo, Jatz (probably copied from Ritz) and Iced Vo-Vo, which we can't get in Canada AFAIK, although we can find pricey Tim-Tams. All these things probably led to the sugar addiction I still fight today. Australian wines have built a formidable international reputation over the years. When I was young, they were considered cheap alternatives to 'real' wines from overseas. Aussie reds were often generically mocked as 'Kanga Rouge'. Not any more. One of the classic old Australian wine makers was Penfolds, from the Barossa Valley in South Australia. A few years ago at the Nova Scotia Port of Wines festival, where an amazing selection of wines from all over the world could be sampled and were awarded medals by sommeliers like your friend, I was somewhat shocked to find that Penfolds 'Grandfather Tawny Port' had beaten out the best ports from Portugal to win the gold medal! I tried it and like it so much I bought a bottle ($100 - not cheap). The perfect way to end a special night. The 'fish' in fish and chips down there used to be 'hake' which was a nice way of saying 'shark' without actually admitting it. There are lots of other kinds of fish if you don't mind paying for it. I used to sometimes order Barramundi which I could pick 'from the window', rolled in flour and deep fried with my chips and potato scallops (which your mate from Colac calls 'potato cakes' - must be Victorian dialect). I have a little ceremony which I indulge every time I drop back to Sydney. I take the ferry from Circular Quay to Manly where I walk from the harbour beach down the Corso toward the magnificent ocean beach, framed with Norfolk Island Pines. Just before I get there I would drop by fish shop and order calimari prepared from the window with potato scallops and chips. While that was cooking I would cross over the Corso to the Hotel Steyne and buy a nice Liebfraumilch with a couple of plastic wine glasses (one for me and one for an accompanying friend) then collect my calimari, walk to the beach, sit down at a public table and enjoy great food, fine wine, good company, the sight and smell of the Pacific ocean, all while fighting off the seagulls. That's when I know in my 'soul' that once again I was 'home', the place of my childhood. Another great video! (I dunno about this 'Team Vegemite' thing though).
Bunnings sausage sizzle in Perth Western Australia has the best sausage sizzle it is in a hot dog bread roll with a sausage and onion inside and your choice of sauce for only $2.50
You have embraced our country and it has be a fun time watching your videos. A old and mostly forgotten Aussie food is Vegemite soup. This is a acquired taste though as it has a strong salty flavor. Ad a couple of tea spoons to a cup of boiling water. Another you did not try the vanilla slice aka the snot block. Most likely easy to have than the soup. I did my apprentice ship in a place owned by Russians and they had a couple of Russians working for them. Soon learnt that one Russian liked spicy hot foods. The old whats that and the here try some. We just called him Norm as his Russian name was well very Russian.
We can buy Vegemite in the U.S. at World Market. World Market has a lot of imported foods from around the world. A great place to sample food culture without getting on an airplane.
Nice wrap up of the food, though I have to say I've only tried Kangaroo once and don't know anyone who eats it regularly (or at all really). It has a peculiar taste! And like others have said, you need to try Pavlova :) And also traditional Aboriginal bush tucker! I love Dalby, btw. Such a great little country town with nice people. I've really enjoyed watching your videos from your Aussie trip, so thank you!
@@musicalneptunian Those were the days when coke in the small bottle had little pieces of ice in them. Nowadays Coca-cola turns to slushies when placed in a freezer proving the product today is a pale imitation of the Real Thing.
Great video, as an Aussie I’ve never eaten roo and don’t plan on it. I would say more of the younger generation would eat it more. Beef, lamb and chicken is what I would choose to regularly have. I just dip my Tim tam in coffee, it taste just as good.
The idea of biting the corners off a Tim Tam is so when you dip one end in your coffee/tea you suck on the other end drawing the coffee/tea all the way through the bicky, you then put the whole thing in your mouth and eat it.
Aussie food/cuisine is: The meat pie, apricot chicken, carrot cake, pumpkin soup, and the pavlova. We tend to consume all foods from other countries because as a multicultural society that Australia is there’s just so much variety to chose from.
As an Aussie, the only time I've seen coffee being sucked up through a Tim Tam is on RUclips videos by new arrivals. They're a biscuit that's best just eaten, not turned into a melted mess in your hand.

Here in the UK Vegimite we call Marmite we did it first, our Fish and Chips is never shark it will be Cod, Haddock etc., we used to have Woolworths it is a British store but no longer is around, we have hardware DIY superstores but no Bar B Que offerings. Loving watching your Aussie expierrience it has been fun.
Vegemite tastes nothing like Marmite which is much sharper.. wish I could buy it in Oz.not all fish and chips is shark. Yes north sea fish is delicious.
Vegemite and Marmite are separate products derived from a process of yeast extract invented in Germany. Woolworths in the UK was a subsidiary of the US company F.W. Woolworth. The Australian Woolworths Group is an independent unrelated company.
@@777poco It is basically the same way they began in Australia. In the 50's/60's they were mainly haberdashery and if memory serves me nothing cost more than 1 shilling at the time which is like 10cents nowadays(1shilling back then was worth way more than 10c today, probably $5-10 today). They then went to 2 shilling shops(20c) and slowly diversified into food and groceries as their main articles for sale. They still sell some haberdashery/kitchen items/computer accessories etc. Now they are probably the largest supermarket chain in Australia with Coles their main opposition.
wait! wot! no pavlova. OMG. lamingtons but no pav? lols. it is good to see people explaining vegemite the right way and great that you've had a look around our fair land.
Wow! I always learn something new with you Elina. I wasn’t aware about those special trees around Dalby. Interesting ☺️ thanks for another great video!
Haha, the tim tam slam definitely works, sometimes it takes a couple of hard sucks to get the drink through the tim tam but the idea is that you use it as a straw and your drink then saturates the biscuits inside the tim tam which gives it a different texture and extra flavour depending on the drink you eat the tim tam with. You just have to make sure that biting the corners off, you can see the cream layer at both corners that you bite otherwise it won't work :D
Thank you for watching, mates!

I skipped straight to vegemite. The 1981 song "Down Under" was a hit in the United States and made it a name we know but few have tasted.
G'Day mate 😎
The guy in the song "Down Under" while touring Belgium, just happened to conveniently have a Vegemite sandwich on him at the time he met the man in Brussels 😂😂
@@sasho888prm Uncanny, no?
Guys, let me know about other particular Aussie products or dishes 👇🏻
Novichok, Polonio 210?
Never tried?
Sorry, I got confused with Russian specialities for Putin's regime opponents...
It is not your case
It's a real hoot watching you adventure around and try new things. I like the plan of staying in a place for an extended period and getting to know the culture and cuisine and geography. I like to do the same thing when I travel but usually can't be gone for more than nine or ten days.
I was born in Australia. I've lived here almost all my life, I never eat kangaroo meat nor emu or crocodile meat.
I don't eat gluten free either.
Australian food is as varied as the people here. We're from all over the world. And we eat whatever suits us & not just what is sold here.
I'm in Sydney which is a very multicultural city.
Yes, meat pie is something very Aussie. We love it. Try a reputable brand or home made one, & you'll love it.
Oh yes, Lamingtons are goooood. Hot Cross buns, very good esp when they're warm & cut in the middle with a spread of butter.
Tim Tams are very aussie too... And delicious; but not too much at once.
Ahhh yes the 'sausage sizzle' from Bunnings... . They usually sell them on the outside of the front entrance of the store. You can usually smell it from afar. So nice.
Melon skiing? Never seen it nor done it!
Ahhh yes, burgers that include beetroot... & BBQ sauce. Yummy!
Ahhh yes, the 'shapes' (crackers). Also quite Aussie!
I've never heard of Bunya. Never eaten it either.
The vine yards are so good! If you can go to any of them & experience the wines, they're great.
Fish & chips is so good. NO... every fish of the 'fish n chips' is NOT always shark. Yeah, they use 'Flake' or 'Hake' (when it's shark), but lots use different other types of fish too.
Potato cakes? (That's what Victorians call them). Here in Sydney they're called 'Potato Scallops'. We also have battered & fried pineapple & banana... Oooooh they're so good!
Yes, Australia has a VERY multicultural cuisine. European, Middle Eastern, Lots of Asian-types, Latin American... everything!
Glad you enjoyed your stay here.
I love your videos.
It is a really genuine perspective. Thank you very much.
How I envy Eli able to travel around! Hope i can travel to Australia since it is not far from Vietnam. Thanks Eli for the video 🌹
The new direct flights from VietJet May help make the cost more reasonable.
Hi😊
@@georgekaplan6451 Thank you for the information, sir 🌹
@@belalahmod8063 hello from Vietnam 🇻🇳
You really want to travel to Australia ? It's not really touristy, and excessively hot and they don't have none of the old world culture or exotic culture neither. The outdoors are tough too. Much better to visit Europe.
You are so funny 😂🤣.
We can't help but be happy when we watch your videos..
Many thanks 👍 Miss Eli
A very excellent Documentary Video Vlog of "AUSTRALIA" Eli very brilliantly done!!!😍🌹🌍🌅🎥🎞🦘
Thank you so much!
@@ElifromRussia You are well come!!🌹
The TimTam straw thing does work, I have done it. You need to bite off both ends, not just the corners, watch out though because the TimTam gets soft quick.
Great video. You really get to experience a country through its cuisine.
vegimite is a waste product from brewing beer and we love it
Eli - you are so incredible. Thank you for another wonderful video!
Thank you so much!
"Spirit of Tasmania" is a Boat that takes people from the mainland to Tasmania, it's famous.
You could give it a go.
That was such a great video, kicked out of woolies to going to Bunnings for the sausage sizzle. I was laughing so much. You got to try so many good things, you missed out on fairy bread though. It's bread with butter then sprinkles put all over, the more you add the better it is
I tried fairy bread… but didn’t find it special 🙈😂
@@ElifromRussia omg no way you actually repiled, day made! 😁 fairy bread is more of a kids food you eat growing up so everyone has fond memories of it eating it even into adulthood
That's the reason why every Aussie has some allergy or intolerance, eating fake foods all the time.
Very interesting....thanks for showing us.🤩🤩
I love to see you exploring such a wonderful country
Tim Tams, Meat Pie. Yes, looking from the outside in, the sausage sizzle at Bunnings is as quirky as it gets. But so Aussie!
As an Australian, I found it quite entertaining to see our 'traditional' foods being tasted by someone from another country. You are very adventurous, Eli. I hope one day to be able to sample Russian foods.
(P.S. I couldn't bring myself to eat kangaroo either.)
Same im curious about what it is taste like russian food
You'll sample a russian missile first...why are you encouraging this obvious mole and pro kremlin propaganda. She needs to be banned....being a Russian is a good enough reason. Ask her to condemn her countries killing of children in ukraine and you'll see her real face.
@@rodneyherron5662 being a Russian. It’s a literally Nazism. Blaming people for their nationality. It’s not her fault. Or u are just a bot(your registration date). Do u think Navalny, Kara-Murza, Katz and etc are criminals?
Kangaroo, as portrayed on a comedy TV show once, is "Prime Australian Beef, a jump ahead of the rest !" That was based on a news story where Kangaroo meat had been being substituted for beef for awhile and no-one noticed. Obviously it was a breach of labelling laws and someone had to say "sorry" afterwards. I think in some states for awhile there, 'Roo meat wasn't allowed to be sold "for human consumption" but was allowed to be sold in supermarkets, if labelled as "pet food only". I recall supermarkets having 'roo meat in the fridge/freezer packaged up as Dog Food.
Hi Mate , Love you Eli. Thank you for all you do to promote us in Australia. On my bucked list is to vised your country.
I'm glad you are having an authentic Aussie adventure.
Now I'd best go cook some toast for my Vegemite.
I actually love Marmite, especially with a slice of cheese, very tasty.
Also a big marmite fan. I add it to my sauces, soups, stews and gravies to give them an umami flavour. I think the UK store own brand yeast extracts usually have a more similar texture to Australian vegemite. Marmite has a uniquely high viscosity liquid texture that I have not seen with other yeast extracts. On a whole, yeast extracts tend to be more of a paste.
I love how open-minded you are. Thank you for sharing the Russian culture with us.
Which Russsian culture: the genocidal one?? 🤮
@@christianmusso629 No, that started with the Russophobic ultranationalists take-over of Kiev. Led by Right-Sector who claim credit for the Odessa Trade Unions Building massacre; subsequently commemorated by torch-lit processions. No one has been prosecuted. Former Right-Sector leader Dmytro Yarosh was hired as advisor to the commander-in-chief of Ukraines armed forces Zaluzhnyi - who's been photographed amongst far-right paraphernalia several times.
In addition, 4.5 million people have been killed in post 9/11 war zones; and 38 million people have been displaced. Two thirds of the world's population have endured sanctions. Let's not forget US unconditional support for and complicity in Israeli atrocities.
Oh yeah, the Russians love to share their culture with neighbors. Espacially with the smaller and weaker ones. The best known Exchange sites for Russian culture can be visited in Bucha and Izyum in Ukraine.
@@sirokasmr308 I'm indiffirent about Russians as nation. I dont like murderers, rapists, invaders and criminals This time they happen to be Russians. This is a huge difference. And I watch her channel to be up to date with Russian soft propaganda which is at least as dangerous as the first line Kremlin's propaganda. So simple is that.
Great video Eli..... I am always wiser after watching an Eli vlog thank you Xx
"Fish and Chips" is actually an even more popular Take-away food in New Zealand than in Australia. And whereas fish-and-chip shops can be hard to find in Australia, in NZ a suburb will likely have several F&C shops ! There are a range of choices for the fish used, with shark being just one option. Those choices vary around Australia, and NZ, depending on what fish is available.Australia has more Burger joints, mostly from international franchised chains, and Chicken Takeaways, from the likes of Red Rooster, and Australian franchised chain.
Don't you mean "Fush and Chups"? 😀
@@peterwilliams2152 Indeed I do ! (explanation for overseas folks.... Although the Australian and New Zealand accents are "similar" and have much in common, including certain vocabulary, there are slight differences. The differences are most pronounced with some vowels, so Aussies often make fun of their Kiwi cousins, with words sounding like "Fush and Chups" , when an Australian hears them. We have maintained close contact and citizens without criminal records can move freely and work in either country. Many folks have relatives living on both side of The Tasman Sea (known as "the ditch") the 1,000miles or 1,600km of water separating both countries. In the 1800's, early European settlement, NZ was considered part of the Colony of New South Wales. By 1900/1901 the time Australia's independent colonies became one federated nation, NZ had already gained independence. NZ was offered a chance to become joined with the new nation of Australia back then, but chose to remain its own independent nation. However a "back door" exists in Australia's constitution to allow NZ (or other places, such as Papua New Guinea etc) to join and become part of Australia, at any future time (subject to a range of conditions and referendums etc being met). Australia and New Zealand often squabble over who invested Pavlova (a large meringue dessert) and who breeds the fastest Race Horses. During past wars, sometimes Kiwis served with Australian Military units as de-facto Australians.
@@KiwiCatherineJemma Only NZ has the ability to join Australia as an "original State". Papua and New Guinea were territories governed by Australia post 1901 and the Australian Constitution and are not mentioned in the Constitution. Interestingly, Fiji was originally considered as part of the proposed Commonwealth.
Tip on Vegemite for non Aussies. We don't actually put it on thick. We mostly do that as a prank (Not sorry, I'd do it again). Best way (for me) to eat it is on 'Turkish Bread' out of a toaster. Sourdough is also good. Use twice as much butter as normal and half as much Vegemite as you might expect. Just enough to colour the top. It should not be black! THEN it's great. Vegemite is packed full of B vitamins which are used to metabolize carbs so I would always eat Vegemite toast when training for sporting events for breakfast. I thought it as 'morning vitamins'.
Thanks Much! Eli.
Fantastic video Eli! Loved it very much. Exploring this country is so nice. Thank you for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it!
In the opening moment you showed the honey products.
If you like honey try that Tasmanian leatherwood one.
Simply the best honey made.
Bunnings BBQ: A piece of sliced bread; butter or margarine (if desired); cheap thin beef sausage; onion and tomato or barberque sauce are optional.
G'day Eli, I loved your Aussie videos, I can't believe when you were in Dalby, you were only a 45 minute drive from where I live... so close.
Eli from Russia love Your channel keep up the great work, cheers Mick Sunshine Coast.

Let's see how many people agree with me🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
Yes, I agreed. It helps my English too🌻 Thank you to Eli🌹
Colac is dairy country and is famous for Bulla ice cream and other cream products. I constantly enjoy Bulla Crunch ice cream poles (on a stick) which come in various flavours like double chocolate, strawberry, vanilla, honeycomb, caramel and coffee, they are coated with a mix of chocolate and biscuit crumbs (hence the double chocolate). Colac also has a nice lake and it is close to vulcano country where in some places the ground is made of scoria (red coloured honeycombed rocks) used for footpaths and garden decoration and walls, it was also crushed fine and used on tennis court surfaces.
5:30 😆 YOUR REACTION WAS PRICELESS I COULD TELL THAT DID N O T TASTE GOOD
AND THATS THEIR “NATIONAL DISH” LOL 🤣
I've lived here for 27 years and I'm literally googling the places that you've been to. Well done mate!
One of your best videos to date Eli! Loved it! A pity you didn't come down Gippsland way in East Victoria..
Awesome !! 😂😂😂 loved it
I'm from Gold Coast Australia. So funny seeing you trying all the different food. We all have Vegemite on toast from little kids. We never eat kangaroos, just couldn't. Love your vids
Exploding timtams is a thing and done it my entire life. Use regular timtams. Bite off opposite corners, suck the coffee through it FAST as it melts and can fall into the cup.
Shark, or as we call it "Flake" is generally popular in the state of Victoria
And Tasmania! 👍🤗
@@jenniferharrison8915 I never knew that, Ive only been to Tasmania once for two weeks and loved it.
@@davecollins6122 I remember mum ordering Flake and Chips! 👍
Another good fun video, and fortunately you have found some locals to help you find your way, and avoid the rediculous stereotypes. I am happy to see you enjoying my country.
I think Bec should start her own channel and do some more videos. She has a distinctive presence on film, and I think she could be a great success doing experience videos. She is natural and entertaining without any pretence.
That is cute that you couldn’t eat any kangaroo or wallaby meat. I have been watching your RUclips videos for a while now. Have you considered coming to Tasmania?
Roo meat isn't healthier than beef or lamb - its can be quite tough when the kangaroos get older.
I'd love to show you how we farm in Australia while you are here! Im 3 hours north of Melbourne
Beef has about 5 times as much fat and less protein than kangaroo and cows produce more methane.
Chinese food in Australia often includes chicken marinated in soy sauce and honey, to get the sweet and salty flavour that we all love.
It’s not the norm, but as an Australian who grew up on Vegemite, I do eat the stuff by the spoonful. It’s also great on a ham and cheese croissant as it gives it a nice salty flavour.
Wow 😱😀
I heard if you add a spoon of Vegemite when frying up beef mince, it gives it a nice flavour for pies, etc.
Americans cannot eat the stuff. I was the only one who liked it. But, by the spoonful?
Yes I eat Vegemite off the spoon. With hunks of cheese too.
@@danielbecker4365 I'm American, we have it at our local grocery store, and I always have it on hand. I also have Marmite, I toss a spoonful of it with potatoes before roasting them. Vegemite would probably work too, but Marmite is a little gooier.
Glad you are having fun over here.
Eli's eating fish and chips in Victoria which is Southern Oz, shark, known as "flake" is very common, and quit tasty, but she didn't spend much time in Queensland and try the holey trinity of reef fish. They are way better than barramundi, and if you come to Australia and go to tropical Northern Queensland (about 2,500 kms North of Melbourne), and don't try one of these you haven't lived. They are
1. Sweetlip
2. Coral Trout
and my favorite
3. Red Emperor
Australia, the lifeboat of the planet
Hey Elli. That’s great. Enjoy Txs for sharing ur content. Love ur channel
Eli, this is your best video!! Oichin harasho!!
Hi Eli, the Vegemite, isn’t strictly Australian, we have it here in the UK too, except we call it marmite. It’s an acquired taste, and has you mentioned it’s spread very thinly, mainly on toast. 😊
Vegemite is totally Australian. It was invented by Aussie Fred Walker. Marmite is very different.
Marmite and Vegemite taste very different.
They are both made from yeast extract, it may be others ingredients are added to the Australian version. I never tried Vegemite. 😉
Marmite is a poor imitation of Vegemite even if it was in UK first. The Aussie version knocks the Brit version for six. Known plenty of Marmite eaters switch to Vegemite but never met/heard of a Vegemite eater switching to Marmite. I tried some once (as is cheaper than Vegemite but only used it twice before throwing the small jar away). Used it twice just to make sure first impressions were not biased.
@@saintsone7877Interesting, I never seen Vegemite in the UK supermarkets, not sure if it is available in the UK. I do love marmite though.
Loved this style of video!
Hi Eli
I'm really enjoying your perspective of Australia. IMHO you are covering so much of it really well. Brings back so many memories...
When I left Australia 36 years ago, kangaroo meat was strictly dog food. Since then it seems to have been heavily pushed as an alternative to beef. Never tried it.
It used to be said there were two kinds of Australians - Vegemite babies or Marmite babies. I understand that Marmite was the original yeast extract spread (made in England) and a knock-off called 'Parwill' appeared, a gimmicky name to help promote the stuff with the pun 'Marmite but Parwill' (get it?). Eventually common sense prevailed and it was renamed to 'Vegemite'. These days the Marmite of my youth is made in Christchurch, New Zealand but Vegemite is still Australian made. If I look far enough I can even find it in Canada - at a stiff price. I will eat it if I can't find NZ Marmite, but I brought back industrial quantities of Marmite when I was down there some years ago. Despite their expiry dates Marmite and Vegemite seems to last forever, so I'm fine for now. I really can't stand British Marmite - yuk!
Like fish and chips, meat pies were originally imported from England and yes, they sort of are a national dish. They often used to be derided colloquially as 'maggot bags', at least in Sydney. Back in the 70s or 80s there was a law in New South Wales that required a minimum meat content in the filling (was it 27%?) and on the rare occasions they were tested, some pies repeatedly failed to meet even that limited requirement. Not too many of us were surprised. I see you are eating a round pie. Do square pies still exist?
I miss lamingtons, vanilla slices and Napoleon cake. I probably started putting on weight in primary school by quaffing cream buns from the cake shop across the road for lunch. Arnott's biscuits were the best, especially Monte Carlo, Jatz (probably copied from Ritz) and Iced Vo-Vo, which we can't get in Canada AFAIK, although we can find pricey Tim-Tams. All these things probably led to the sugar addiction I still fight today.
Australian wines have built a formidable international reputation over the years. When I was young, they were considered cheap alternatives to 'real' wines from overseas. Aussie reds were often generically mocked as 'Kanga Rouge'. Not any more. One of the classic old Australian wine makers was Penfolds, from the Barossa Valley in South Australia. A few years ago at the Nova Scotia Port of Wines festival, where an amazing selection of wines from all over the world could be sampled and were awarded medals by sommeliers like your friend, I was somewhat shocked to find that Penfolds 'Grandfather Tawny Port' had beaten out the best ports from Portugal to win the gold medal! I tried it and like it so much I bought a bottle ($100 - not cheap). The perfect way to end a special night.
The 'fish' in fish and chips down there used to be 'hake' which was a nice way of saying 'shark' without actually admitting it.
There are lots of other kinds of fish if you don't mind paying for it. I used to sometimes order Barramundi which I could pick 'from the window', rolled in flour and deep fried with my chips and potato scallops (which your mate from Colac calls 'potato cakes' - must be Victorian dialect).
I have a little ceremony which I indulge every time I drop back to Sydney.
I take the ferry from Circular Quay to Manly where I walk from the harbour beach down the Corso toward the magnificent ocean beach, framed with Norfolk Island Pines. Just before I get there I would drop by fish shop and order calimari prepared from the window with potato scallops and chips. While that was cooking I would cross over the Corso to the Hotel Steyne and buy a nice Liebfraumilch with a couple of plastic wine glasses (one for me and one for an accompanying friend) then collect my calimari, walk to the beach, sit down at a public table and enjoy great food, fine wine, good company, the sight and smell of the Pacific ocean, all while fighting off the seagulls. That's when I know in my 'soul' that once again I was 'home', the place of my childhood.
Another great video! (I dunno about this 'Team Vegemite' thing though).
Bunnings sausage sizzle in Perth Western Australia has the best sausage sizzle it is in a hot dog bread roll with a sausage and onion inside and your choice of sauce for only $2.50
You have embraced our country and it has be a fun time watching your videos. A old and mostly forgotten Aussie food is Vegemite soup. This is a acquired taste though as it has a strong salty flavor. Ad a couple of tea spoons to a cup of boiling water. Another you did not try the vanilla slice aka the snot block. Most likely easy to have than the soup. I did my apprentice ship in a place owned by Russians and they had a couple of Russians working for them. Soon learnt that one Russian liked spicy hot foods. The old whats that and the here try some. We just called him Norm as his Russian name was well very Russian.
I think, I’m not the only person who learned that Bec and her sister look alike✨😍 Very interesting to watch this video, thanks Elli❤
We can buy Vegemite in the U.S. at World Market. World Market has a lot of imported foods from around the world. A great place to sample food culture without getting on an airplane.
Before I moved, I could find it at the local Indian (and British) grocery store. I moved up to the mountains, and it's now at the local market.
Nice wrap up of the food, though I have to say I've only tried Kangaroo once and don't know anyone who eats it regularly (or at all really). It has a peculiar taste! And like others have said, you need to try Pavlova :) And also traditional Aboriginal bush tucker! I love Dalby, btw. Such a great little country town with nice people. I've really enjoyed watching your videos from your Aussie trip, so thank you!
Hake is shark, you don't always get that. We do have other fish from fish shops. You can ask for no salt on your fish, or chicken salt instead.
Sometimes there is a sausage sizzle at Bunnings, but it's not free.
Next time I will try it!
@@ElifromRussiaIt's old, expired meat from community kitchens. That's why it's cheap.
I think if you went right back to the '50s it would have been eggs beans and pork sausages for breakfast
Washed down with a spider [mix of ice cream and lemonade like an ice cream float. Used to get them a milk bar.]
Wasn't until the 60s an exotic Italian dish called spaghetti became known to the Australian household.
@@lilth501In terms of the working class environment I grew up in, here in England. It wasn't until the 1980's that spaghetti became more prevalent.
@@musicalneptunian Those were the days when coke in the small bottle had little pieces of ice in them. Nowadays Coca-cola turns to slushies when placed in a freezer proving the product today is a pale imitation of the Real Thing.
Great video, as an Aussie I’ve never eaten roo and don’t plan on it. I would say more of the younger generation would eat it more. Beef, lamb and chicken is what I would choose to regularly have. I just dip my Tim tam in coffee, it taste just as good.
The idea of biting the corners off a Tim Tam is so when you dip one end in your coffee/tea you suck on the other end drawing the coffee/tea all the way through the bicky, you then put the whole thing in your mouth and eat it.
Aussie food/cuisine is: The meat pie, apricot chicken, carrot cake, pumpkin soup, and the pavlova. We tend to consume all foods from other countries because as a multicultural society that Australia is there’s just so much variety to chose from.
It's good to see she's fell in love with Australia, I did myself when I moved her in 1986, I hope that she decides to stay.
She should go back to Russia and fix her own country, first!
As an Aussie, the only time I've seen coffee being sucked up through a Tim Tam is on RUclips videos by new arrivals. They're a biscuit that's best just eaten, not turned into a melted mess in your hand.
Эли, мне понравились твои австралийские видео. Имам изучает русский язык, и у меня есть замечательные языковые друзья в Сочи, Иркутске и Уфе. Мы все должны поддерживать друг друга. Продолжайте хорошую работу.
Also sizzle is a word that refers to the sound a meat makes when it is being flame broiled. The meat is sizzling over the flame, it will be well done very soon.
Sizzle is the sound that the meat makes when it’s on the hot grill or pan! Like Crack, Pop, or Crunch - they’re all sounds!

Here in the UK Vegimite we call Marmite we did it first, our Fish and Chips is never shark it will be Cod, Haddock etc., we used to have Woolworths it is a British store but no longer is around, we have hardware DIY superstores but no Bar B Que offerings.
Loving watching your Aussie expierrience it has been fun.
Vegemite and marmite are 100% different products 👍🏻
Vegemite tastes nothing like Marmite which is much sharper.. wish I could buy it in Oz.not all fish and chips is shark. Yes north sea fish is delicious.
Vegemite and Marmite are separate products derived from a process of yeast extract invented in Germany.
Woolworths in the UK was a subsidiary of the US company F.W. Woolworth. The Australian Woolworths Group is an independent unrelated company.
we had Woolworth's stores In Canada at one time, they were like small department stores
@@777poco It is basically the same way they began in Australia. In the 50's/60's they were mainly haberdashery and if memory serves me nothing cost more than 1 shilling at the time which is like 10cents nowadays(1shilling back then was worth way more than 10c today, probably $5-10 today). They then went to 2 shilling shops(20c) and slowly diversified into food and groceries as their main articles for sale. They still sell some haberdashery/kitchen items/computer accessories etc. Now they are probably the largest supermarket chain in Australia with Coles their main opposition.
I'm surprised no mention was made of pavlova - I had the impression both Australia and New Zealand claimed it a national dish.
Another fab video
wait! wot! no pavlova. OMG. lamingtons but no pav? lols.
it is good to see people explaining vegemite the right way and great that you've had a look around our fair land.
I’ve had Pavlova but I was told that it’s from New Zealad, not Australia 🤷♂️🤔
@@ElifromRussia The two countries have argued over its origin for almost one hundred years.
It has taken an outsider to make a really great video glimpse of Australia.
You should have tried a vanilla slice (also known as a "snot block").
Wow! I always learn something new with you Elina. I wasn’t aware about those special trees around Dalby. Interesting ☺️ thanks for another great video!
Haha, the tim tam slam definitely works, sometimes it takes a couple of hard sucks to get the drink through the tim tam but the idea is that you use it as a straw and your drink then saturates the biscuits inside the tim tam which gives it a different texture and extra flavour depending on the drink you eat the tim tam with. You just have to make sure that biting the corners off, you can see the cream layer at both corners that you bite otherwise it won't work :D
