• Typical settler colonialist nation, anything good is stolen from other countries. Modern Australian food takes a lot of influence from southeast Asian and Mediterranean food. And when I say southeast Asian I mean it’s kind of a grab bag of Thai, Viet, Korean, Indonesian and other influences. A lot of seafood, mixed with local ingredients. I once saw on a taqueria menu a fish taco made with barramundi and gochujang. Didn’t try it tho :im-vegan:

      It’s not stolen lol it was brought by the people who came. It wasn’t Brits being like “Hmm I say Jeeves you know what would spice up life down here in the colonies? A bit of slur redacted coffee and some of those formosian noodles”.
