Dreaming of Spring Break

Sunday, February 28, 2010

For Spring Break this year, I’m breaking the mold and heading down to Australia! As well as doing the usual vacation things, I am going to visit some family. I literally cannot wait to hit Bondi Beach and soak in the rays. I’ve been to Australia several times and can’t escape some of the classic Aussie foods. I thought I’d fill you in on some of the more popular ones:

Vegemite: Australians often put this on toast in the morning. It’s rather dense and super salty. I simply can’t eat it but others can’t get enough!

Milk Bottles Candy: I used to love these when I was younger. They are white little gummy candy products in the shape of milk bottles.

Violet Crumble: A candy bar most popular to Australia but can be found in a few other places as well.

Fairy Bread: Generally found at children’s birthday parties. It’s a piece of sliced bread with butter and tons of bright sprinkles.

I hope everyone has a great spring break!
