Probably as often as you'd say "buddy" both in a condescending sense and a genuine sense.

Truth.

I can STILL vividly remember sitting on the couch in our old childhood house intently staring at that train cake that my 'no sugar' hippy parents had made for my brother's birthday. It was 1981 or close to. I don't know if anything since has given me the same intense feeling of total awe. The wheels were mint slice bikkies, the carriages were filled with lollies. God that's so nostalgic I can even see the dim orange light of our 70's brown living room. I'm sure there's a photo of 5yo me staring at it like I'm seeing god somewhere in my folks albums.

I've certainly heard often enough that we do, but I've never actually seen such a thing in real life.

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

One of the advantages of Australia having 13+ Migrant waves is that, as already discussed, you can find food from all over the world if you look in the right place. Australia also paradoxically has really nice growing conditions in certain areas for all sorts of thing, most notably wine.

But yes, there isn't really a quote unquote 'Australian' cuisine, mostly because it's stolen from other cultures and probably varies depending on where your families came from etc. The closest we have is probably a national fascination with Australian Lamb. Although we also have a variety of fish, and well, for Indigenous Australains there's more than a few ways to cook and eat snakes, goannas and various wildlife creatures in the Outback (personally I like damper).

(if you can find it, kangaroo meat is interesting too)
