Aussie Souvenirs and Food

ive got loads from hungary O_o lets hope they dont speak their language all the time (they outnumbered the brits!)

Hey guys,
Aaron here, im heading off in a week and a few days to camp, so im so excited ive bought heaps of aussie souvenirs, Koala keyrings, aussie thongs, T shirts, Shorts, Towel, Hats even a green and gold cowboy hat with corks, Jacket, and well it nearly fills up my entire suit case..lol..but yeah im taking over some vegemite aswell, does anyone know if Vegemite is let through customs, are we allowed to take vegemite in?

hey aaron. yep we can take over most foods, including vegimite! just not like seeds or plants, meat, fruit etc. i think the proper info for and links for that are on ccusa forum. I dont even think u have to declare it, but to be safe i'd tick the 'i need to declare food' box thingy. I dont think it can be taken on the plane but it can be packed with ur other luggage underneath. I'd just ring ur travel agent and find out the specifics.

and dan - i was talking to a girl from my camp who's been there before and her campers were allowed to try the vegemite she brought over? i guess it depends on which camp you go to and stuff. i'd just check with the director or a supervisor or something b4 u do it.

I'm definantly bringing PROMITE cos its way better than vegemite haha altho i dont mind vegemite so i'll bring that too. I heard a lot of american camp food (and american food in general) is really sugary- like the breakfast cereals and they love cooked breakfasts every day. So just incase i get sick of it, i'm bringing my promite lol. Also probably tim-tams and some allens lollies and cadbury chocolate because i've tasted american chocolate and it tastes like vomit- lol its gross. And maybe bottled water, i hear there's isnt the nicest....but it'll be heavy- i'll just deal with it haha.

ohhhhhhhhhhh, Promite for shiz nick, couldnt forget that, way better then vegemite, yewl

hahaha i know hey! promite is SO good, cant believe they dont have it over there. shame on them haha

promite taste like shit! lol
clearly marmite is the beez neez! come on people! lol

i so cant wait to take it over

Hey yeah i so cant wait, im gona hand them out like santa on chrissy eve...lol...

PROMITE n VEGEMITE im taking over at leats 4 jars each of them so hope the yanks like them, because if they dont ill be crushed, i so wanna take some meat pies over, but i cant take meat boo hoo i cant live with out pies, im a true blue aussie

hahaha aaron ur a true blue aussie bloke!

hey aaron, meat pies u say? well apparantly lol there's this site where you can order aussie food cheaply and have it delivered to you- and one of their main foods are pies! its on the ccusa site i think?

i was looking on it for tim tams lol

omg cadbury blocks of chocolate.....tim-tams....natural confectionary lollies!!!!!

Surely you can go 3 months without TimTams you crazy girls! Im not going to worry about packing anything like that, there will be plenty of substitutes...

As for Vegemite/Marmite/Promite - theyre all YUCK in my book...

cadbury are gods! lol

Agreed. But Tim Tams are Arnotts

mmm promite- i can live without timtams- i just wanted to bring them over for other people, as for the promite, thats soley for me mmm haa

I remember seeing some fake TimTams at Aldi or something and they were called TemTims I think it was a play on 'temptings' but still, how close to TimTams (and how funny!!!)
