Well I'm no aussie... but don't ask for Fosters in Aussie, they'll probably just laugh at you... But I guess you could also run the risk of being stabbed... They don't drink it... Or if they do, it's not much...


BINGO Jester.

Aussies make fun of those who drink Fosters... always tourists!!! We pretty much only export that vile crap. Barely any pubs sell it here in Aus, only ones with high tourist patronage!

Not heard that before but a fag can be a cigarette or a homosexual man. Also faggots were these weird big meatball type things that were made up of the left over bits of meat that werent good enough for hot dogs, all mushed together and served in gravy.

that picture is hilarious, but I shudder at the thought of what kind of meat would be deemed "not good enough" for hot dogs. :blink:

Not even sure if they still make faggots anymore, probably got shut down when people figured out about healthy eating and stuff. Remember having them as a kid and really liking them, looking back on it thats probably very wrong.

Just don't read Upton Sinclair's The Jungle... :puke: It is about the US meat packing industry in Chicago...early 20th century. I'm not sure anything has changed. They have just learned to cover their mistakes better and buy off gov't inspectors.
It's almost enough to make me swear off meat and try Vegemite...Naah

Great Aussie research!!!

Do you guys have that stuff there????

I liken it to Gnappy's clamato juice or whatever it was. Every person who tries it and isn't Australian hates the stuff... but I do not know an Aussie who doesn't have it in their pantry and who doesn't enjoy a bit of Veggie on toast

I think I could get it in our local health food store.. :lol: :huh:

I guess I'll have to try it some time. I have heard mixed reviews...like "you don't want to know how they make it." I'll try to keep an open mind. Maybe I could find a nice boob to spread it on and then lick it off. :lol:
