Moving to a new country pushes you out of your comfort zone, there’s no denying it, and never more so in the food that you encounter on a daily basis.
VEGEMITE
This yeast extract spread was originally created from leftover brewers’ yeast , and is a naturally high source of vitamin B—but despite this unappetizing description it’s grown to be one of Australia’s most well-known national and international icons.
KANGAROO
Some might find it strange that we eat our national animal, but you can find kangaroo meat in both the butcher and pet food section of most grocery stores. You’ll even find products made of kangaroo skin in tourist shops, like the curious kangaroo scrotum coin purse. Yes, these exist.
LAMINGTONS
Lamingtons are one of the most popular Australian cakes. Large cubes of sponge cake coated in chocolate, then covered in coconut, you can find them in every supermarket, every bake sale, and at every office morning tea.
ANZAC BISCUITS
Named for the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC), these biscuits were allegedly created as a way to use available resources to make a treat that would travel from families in Australia across the oceans and arrive, still edible, to ANZAC soldiers serving in the First World War.
