it ended wen u stop asking stupid asss questions To the answerer above - I hope you enjoyed letting off steam in answer to a perfectly serious and reasonable quuestion. I'm not sure that there was much food rationing in Australia in the years after WWII. My wife, born 1944, was from Tasmania (an Australian state) - comparing her childhood recollections with mine (England, late 40s, early 50s), she did not recollect the significant restrictions on food items that I recollected. I hope an Australian can answer you more fully.
