What is the typical food you would eat in Australia?

Answer 1

People in Australia will eat things such as chickens, cows and pigs like Americans. They will also eat kangaroos and alligators.

Answer 2

Australians eat a great variety of food, but some of the more traditional meals could include roast meat (e.g. lamb and beef, both of which are very popular) and vegetables. Other favourites are meat pies, Sandwiches (including vegemite) and a variety of baked or fried foods.

Barbeques are popular, whether at home, or at parks or beaches. Barbequed meats, seafood and poultry, vegetables and fruit are all enjoyed, and this is typical of many Australian families.

'Fast foods', or convenience foods, are popular, and the same major chains operate here as in the rest of the world, with many local outlets also operating. The traditional English-style fish 'n' chips shops are always popular, and still sell the Chinese-inspired Chiko Roll, now US-owned, but considered a local cultural icon.

Answer 3

Food!!!

living in a foreign country I know understand the reason for this type of question, but still it does sound funny to us.

Australia is very different to most countries in that our multicultural mixture that makes us who we are is still in the making. Australia is only just over 200 year old. We have yet to really have a true identity. (Which totally away from the point, is why this current crop of Horror racism is happening at the moment, people are trying to fight for an identity that really isn't a solid thing yet)

Back to the food issue...what this means for food is that we don't have an Australian food. There is meat pie's and sausage rolls but as a white Australian I don't eat those and I know many others that don't either...Thats more country food rather than Australian food. But the rednecks down the pub will swear black and blue that it's the only true Aussie food.

There is lots of Chinese and Italian influence in the Aussie diet as they were the biggest immigrant populations to begin with. And now we are seeing lots of others. Lebanese with kebabs and Russian with stroganoff and many, many more. It depends a lot on the family too, where they are originally from within Australia, where they ancestors were from outside Australia. Area's with higher populations of one immigrant culture usually eat a lot of that style of food whether or not the family themselves are of that culture.

But you can't go past the true Aussie favorite - no matter what culture you came from you know your an Aussie when you sit outside and drink beer while your BBQ-ing a big fat steak (vegetarians can cook whatever but we ain't admitting to knowing anything about it).

But seriously we really do eat a little bit of everything, not so much of the raw stuff or the spicy stuff but big on meat.

Answer 4

The correct answer is Hot dogs that's what most of them eat.Actually Australians eat a large variety of foods as they come from many different countries and like to share their cultural foods with everybody else. Australians come from countries such as Britain, Italy, Greece, New Zealand, India, Lebanon, Germany, Poland, Vietnam, South Africa, Sudan, China, Iran, Philippines, Afghanistan, Malaysia etc, etc. So take your pick, you are sure to find whatever food you are hungry for in Australia.

Answer 5

Australians eat the same sorts of foods are other western nations. What might be considered 'common' food in Australia is basically English in origin and could include roast meat (e.g. lamb and beef, both of which are very popular) and vegetables. Other favourites are meat pies, sandwiches (including vegemite) and a variety of baked or fried foods.

Barbeques are popular, whether at home, or at parks or beaches. Barbequed meats, seafood and poultry, vegetables and fruit are all enjoyed, and this is typical of many Australian families.

'Fast foods', or convenience foods, are popular, and the same major chains operate here as in the rest of the world, with many local outlets also operating. The traditional English-style fish 'n' chips shops are always popular, and still sell the Chinese-inspired Chiko Roll, now US-owned, but considered a local cultural icon.

Vegemite (a common spread) is unique to Australia. Damper (a traditional bread) is also used, along with pavlova a type of meringue dessert.

Answer 6

Australia has an interesting selection of food. Steak, pavlovas (for dessert), lamingtons, Anzac biscuits, kangaroo meat and many more. Australia is the land of vegemite- a spread. It really depends on what you mean by 'typical food'. Australia offers so many flavours starting from the grubs of the bush. There's nothing 'typical', 'normal' or 'boring' about the food there!
