Hunting of kangaroo, wallaby and emu was common, with other foods widely consumed including bogong moths, witchetty grubs, lizards and snakes. It is understood that up to 5,000 species of Australian flora and fauna were eaten by Indigenous Australians. In modern times, this collection of foods and customs has become known as bush tucker.
Indigenous Australians have lived off native flora and fauna of the Australian bush for over 60,000 years. Restaurants which include contemporary adaptations, interpretations or fusions of exotic influences are frequently termed Modern Australian.
While fast food chains are abundant, Australia's metropolitan areas have restaurants that offer both local and international foods. Australia also produces wine, beer and soft drinks. Australia exports many agricultural products, including cattle, sheep, poultry, milk, vegetables, fruit, nuts, wheat, barley and canola. Organic and biodynamic foods have also become widely available alongside a revival of interest in bush tucker. Īustralian cuisine in the 21st century reflects the influence of globalisation, with many fast-food restaurants and international trends becoming influential. The Australian gold rushes introduced more varied immigrants and cuisines, mainly Chinese, whilst post-war immigration programs led to a large-scale diversification of local food, mainly due to the influence of migrants from the Mediterranean, East Asia and South Asia. Australia became a collection of British colonies from 1788 to 1900, during which time culinary tastes were strongly influenced by British and Irish migrants, with agricultural products such as beef cattle, sheep and wheat becoming staples in the local diet. Indigenous Australians have occupied Australia for some 65,000 years, during which they developed a unique hunter-gatherer diet, known as bush tucker, drawn from regional Australian plants and animals. Australia has absorbed culinary contributions and adaptations from various cultures around the world, including British, European, Asian and Middle Eastern. Australian cuisine is the food and cooking practices of Australia and its inhabitants.
