What do Anzac biscuits have to do with ANZAC Day?

ANZAC biscuits are part of the ANZAC tradition, although they are by no means limited to just ANZAC Day. They are quite a favourite biscuit in Australia. The ANZAC biscuits were so named because they were made by the women at home and sold to buy small necessities and luxuries for the ANZAC(Australia and New Zealand Army Corps) troops in World War I. These little "comforts of home" included things like soap, toothpaste, pencils, books and lollies. The ANZAC biscuits were also sent to the troops because, being flat and made with oats and syrup, they travelled well and lasted longer, unlike standard cakes and biscuits. Originally the biscuits were called "soldiers' biscuits", and only gained the name "ANZAC biscuits" towards the end of the war, long after the unsuccessful Gallipoli campaign. It was an expression of patriotic pride in the Australian and New Zealand troops serving overseas.
