People in the modern Australian outback eat the same things as people in the cities. The storage and cooking facilities are comparable with those in the cities, although costs tend to be slightly higher due to the cost of extra transportation. In the 19th century and early 20th century, when the outback was a place for itinerant swagmen and bushmen, these people often lived on damper, a simple bread made from flour, salt and water and cooked over an open campfire. Workers in the outback lived on a fairly staple diet of beef or mutton with potatoes or stews.

∙ 15y agoMany people in the outback run cattle or sheep stations, or are workers on those stations. Their needs are serviced by the outback towns, so other people operate businesses in town, such as providing food, clothing, mechanical repairs, petrol, etc. Schools are still required, some of which offer "School of the Air" (now called Outback Education). Many outback towns are located near mines, so some areas have a lot of people working in the mines. These people are by no means only labourers in the mines, but administration staff and IT support personnel as well.
