I thought it was the entire Western World and not just Australia and America that had a fast food outlet every 5-10 minutes or so?

In the cities perhaps. Let us not forget we have signs like this in Australia:

Driving from Norseman, Western Australia; to Ceduna, South Australia is a 1200 kilometre long journey:

I don't think fast food outlets would be available along that route!

Trust me, Irn Bru is amazing. Come to Scotland and get some. AMAZING.............

I have found Irn Bru in Australia. It's available in the foreign food aisle at Coles, if anyone here wants to buy it.

I don't trust you, RD. It'll probably taste like Scottish piss fermented in haggis! :Goober:. It also costs about $3.50, I'm not paying that much for a can of anything that's not alcoholic.

It's not great....You can get a can here for like 39p. I wouldn't recommend it. What else have they got down the foreign food aisle?

Dr. Pepper, the American soft drink. Actually pretty decent, but still, overpriced. A lot of ready-to-eat Asian/Italian food, foreign spices, and that's about it. Its basically foreign food for Australians, rather than foreign food for migrants. We do our shopping at dedicated stores rather than supermarkets.

They don't sell Dr. Pepper in Australia, other than the foreign food aisle? For real? It's everywhere here.

Yep, it never took off here and so got relegated to being sold at a few shops and just the one supermarket giant :(

I quite like Dr. Pepper. But that should come as no surprise. Doctors like each other :Goober:
