      @@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!

    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.

    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.

      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.

      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.

    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'.

    "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.

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.

    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.

    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).

    As to Kangaroo meat i don't know of anybody who eats it except pet food for dogs. Our variety of food is huge because of our diverse cultures is a melting pot of cuisine from around the world
    You still can't beat a good roast meal (beef, pork,chicken etc) with lots of gravy and roast or mashed potatoes & baked cauliflour gratin + peas or beans covered in thick mint sauce.
    For dessert the Aussie favourite is Pavlova & cream + some ice-cream
