Pavlova is a meringue dessert claimed by both New Zealand and Australia. The dish is said to have been named after Anna Pavlova, a Russian Ballet dancer, who was on tour in 1926 and 1929. Anna Pavlova was a famous ballerina and her dances are best described as light and airy, similar to the dessert.
Research indicates that the pavlova was originally from New Zealand. The Australian claim is that it was invented by a Perth chef in 1935; New Zealand claims are based on a recipes in a magazine and a cookery book from 1929 and 1933, with additional reports from a biographer stating that it was invented in 1926 after Anna Pavlova's visit. It was after this that the pavlova began to gain more prominence in New Zealand (and Australia) with the competition to claim the dessert heating up in the ensuing decades.
Rivalry between the two countries regarding the origin of the pavlova has continued for decades - and will probably continue for many more. The article at the link below concedes that the dessert now known as the pavlova most likely originated in New Zealand, but that the actual name of Pavlova, after Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova, was bestowed upon it by a Perth chef.

In New Zealand I was always told Marmite was a meat extract and vegemite was a vegetable extract product Was marmite ever made with meat?
No. Marmite was never made with meat. It is possible that the confusion arose because the name "Marmite" was taken from the word marmite which is a French stock pot or cooking pot. The French pronunciation for the French pot marmite is "mar-MEET." There is some possibility, too, that the name Marmite may have been taken from a famous French soup, petite marmite.
