A Timeline of Australian Food takes readers on a tasty and sometimessurprising culinary journey through 150 years of Australian food. Lavishly illustrated,this tasty book looks at what we've eaten, how we've shopped, and how we'veproduced and prepared our food, decade by decade, through depression, war, anddecades of abundance.
Withinthe lifetime of today's Baby Boomers, there have been revolutionary changes inhow we eat. The standard Anglo-Irish staples of meat and potatoes haven'tdisappeared, but they've been joined by pizza and pho, kimchi and kebabs. Andonce we had two takeaway options - fish andchips - but now they're endless.
Neverbland, this is history in digestible chunks with big helpings of tasty triviaand a generous dash of nostalgia. How did Tim Tams get their name? Why was Australia's first commercial oliveoil produced in a prison? Why were revolving restaurants so popular? You'llcome back wanting a second helping.
