Vegemite is extremely popular.It's a sandwich spread.

Generally Western, think BBQ, steaks and large sandwiches. But also pies, Italian and seafood. Lots of deep fried foods like Chico Rolls, Fish and Chips etc. In the cities, Vietnamese, Chinese, Greek and Middle Eastern are quite popular.
I hope that helps.

Basically we are meat eaters - beef, lamb, pork, chicken, fish etc and kangaroo meat is also available in the larger stores. We love our sunday roasts with baked vegies and gravy. Being multi cultural we're not afraid to enjoy the cuisines of other countries. My favourite being Thai. BBQ's are popular throughout the country. We are constantly being told we are all overweight, so fresh and healthy food is also on our tables. We eat anything!

I'm a Canadian in Australia and some things I see here that I don't see at home (or aren't as popular at home) are:
vegemite spread for toast
Turkish Bread
caramel slices, lamingtons
bbq kangaroo
pikelets (mini pancakes with no butter in them)
jaffas (chocolate orange candy)
and you can't get seem to get perogies anywhere! I miss them!

as Monday coming is a public holiday....Australia day TV encouragement to have BBQ lamb chops apparently regarded as being a very Australian thing to do and to eat.......I guess we eat a lot of meat especially barbiequed(?spelling) and as I do like my steak and lamb chops too I am up there with the aussies (apparently also good for weight watching)

I had a friend from Aussie, they love Veggimite, it's like a spread. Aussies put it on everything. It's nasty stuff though

i am an american living in australia... it feels like i moved to thailand though - there are 5 thai restaurants for every fish and chips joint...
tons of pie places too... and whatever you can cook on a grill becomes a "barbie" delight.
hmmm...
ah, curries seem to be of preference too...
