21 Unspoken Australian Food Rules That We All Subconsciously Follow

    Long sprinkles on fairy bread? Get lost.

    1. When you're making a glass of Milo, milk goes in first.

    2. Pizza Shapes are undeniably the "crowd-pleaser" flavour.

    3. Fairy bread can only be made with 100s and 1000s — not long sprinkles. Ew.

    4. Party pies are always better than full-size ones.

    5. But if you're going full-size, servo pies are just as good as a fancy bakery.

    6. Chicken Twisties are inferior to cheese...but we'll always eat them if they're there.

    7. Red frogs are the best lolly in a bag of Party Mix.

    8. And banana lollies are gross, though acceptable ONLY when dispersed through a Party Mix.

    9. Picnics are obviously the best options in a box of Favourites.

    10. Though NO ONE wants Turkish Delight.

    11. Double Coat Tim Tams are far, far better than Original.

    12. Eating mango in a neat way is a waste of time and energy.

    13. Green cordial is the only time that lime flavour is good.

    14. Onions go on top of a sausage sizzle, but before the sauce.

    15. Speaking of which, tomato sauce is the superior sausage sizzle sauce and must always be chosen.

    16. Wedges are best served with sour cream and sweet chilli sauce.

    17. A chook and a six-pack of dinner rolls is a gold-tier thing to bring to a barbecue.

    18. Passion Pop is objectively disgusting, but something that we will always remember fondly from our youth.

    19. Musk sticks are soap-flavoured chalk, secretly disguised as lollies.

    20. Jam doughnuts, Neenish Tarts and any kind of pastie are ALWAYS better from a country bakery.

    21. And finally, The Coffee Club has surprisingly good capps, but is only an acceptable cafe choice if you're with your nan.
