Sorry that is not culture... that is diet.

yes surely our culture must amount to more than a pie and sauce by this time- for intance like it or love it you hear of the US gun culture- but what is the australian culture what are we known or other than a pie and sauce-?

It could be about how we are a nation of friendly ppl/mateship- the fair go etc - for instance- the GBR our beautiful out back- the Steve Irwin would be a big one- he was a great emabassador for australia- like him or not- now we have little Bindi Irwin and her brother Bobs- dont forget and we are now embarking on a new phase in our culture- our young ppl and the wealth of talent they will contribute- the film industary in Australia will be huge in another generation- Bris-vegas and Hollywood

Australians prefer wine - over beer - in 2018
Most of us have a built in avoidance, of all things 'sport'
And a long way from the meat pie - our most popular meal is now pasta

You tell Spot & a couple of others that.

NOT!!! its beer maybe in inner city melbourne or Sydney- heck even I like beer- and only drink a dry red sometimes

The pie with sauce and iced coffee is definitely part of our culture, I would have had thousands by now, we have a young culture with NO BAGGAGE and a very rich one.

A short list: Cricket footy pubs the outback the ocean fishing surfing cars bikes gambling the boomerang work holidays the sickie long weekends and Victoria Bitter.

You seem to be confusing "Australian culture" with "bogan culture"

So not really a culture that goes back to whenever. More a recent culture. I dont know anyone who drinks wine or eats much pasta btw. Its all beer and footy. Guess the people i know are old school. And pizza - also meat pies! I never really thought about it til now but ugggh.
