Australian Food Customs That Americans Might Find Very Confusing

Australia is known for a lot of things: amazing wildlife, beautiful beaches, nice people, endless stretches of open land, etc. But what about their food?

It’s kind of a mystery to most Americans, but no more!

Here are 12 Aussie food customs that we might find a bit unusual but are staples Down Under. Let’s take a look and see what’s going on with the food down there.

1. Vegemite on toast.

2. Ice cream + soda = a spider.

3. Sausage placed diagonally on white bread.

4. Bega cubes and primo cabanossi.

5. Chips with chicken salt.

6. Meat pie in a bowl of pea soup.
