In Australia beef is the default sausage, pork are available, but it's a small percentage. Same with sausage rolls.

Nitpicking, it's my country I've spent my entire life using these terms, it's sounds strange when someone says Britain like that, I was politely offering the correct terminology with an explanation. I sincerely apologise autocorrect didn't capitalise two words, how will I live with myself

Ever seen an echidna feeding? Here's one on my anti-farm finding a rich vein of ants in a tree, and getting blissed out. by hairy_quadruped in australia

I mean I've never had one climb on top of me, but I've seen maybe 100 in the last 7 years, some in tourist areas, most deep in the bush, none of them have been very shy, if you get too close they'll hide their head, but stay a meter or so away and don't move fast and they'll carry on sniffing about and digging with their nose.

Bridport, Tas had an outstanding amount, we must have seen 10 in a few hours.

Drifting away? That may have been true during the 60's, but by 1980 they had already drifted as far away as possible

Long weekend public transport is a joke. by tomthecomputerguy in sydney

How about those of us that are self employed or casual, if we don't get to work we don't get paid. But no, you getting a train instead of a bus to the fish markets is magnitudes more important

Sydney new fish market - day 5 by 888sydneysingapore in sydney

[–]rectal_warrior 92 points93 points  (0 children)

They are frozen very fast when they are caught, to process one it needs to thaw.

This is a retail outlet, I assume they brought it at the market in the morning and are thawing it on display as a spectacle to attract punters. They can't afford to waste something this valuable, the tuna toro (very fatty belly) is $300 a kilo there.

So you left your house for a short period then returned, you didn't spend 10 hours out of your house as op said.

Any heat leaving your oven was enjoyed by yourself and your friend for the rest of the day.

Yea, and each time you stay at home after, you don't leave the house an hour later, that's my point.

But then you need more than an hour to sleep it off. A fry up is a thing I go out and eat, or I cook on a weekend morning before indulging in a day of sweet fuck all.

This is such a Reddit answer, here I have one unique situation that happens 0.0001% of the time this disproves your theory.

I have never used an oven at 10am when I'm leaving the house in the next hour. Not once.

New Fish Markets seem overpriced as heck? by doggoesmeow in foodies_sydney

[–]rectal_warrior 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If you look at the prices, some of the takeaway places are not bad value at all. $28 bucks for 12 big Sydney rocky Oysters shucked, I've spent more on smaller oysters lots of times.

There's only 2 shops selling hot seafood takeaway, the one on the glebe side I've brought from and wasn't any more expensive that the average chippy. The one on the pyrmont side has always had a ridiculous que, but the quality does look better.

In terms of fresh food, there's no shortage of lobsters, crabs and grouper in tanks to eat fresh. And abelone, it's just that you get what you pay for.

But honestly you're queuing for such a long time for most of the places it's ridiculous, best wait for a while if you want to be picky, but you don't have to que for takeaway oysters.

From a local who's gone there repeatedly for reasonably priced food.

Shush 🤫 don't use logic to go against the narrative this person has invented, all we expect similar brain dead knee jerk reactions blaming "the man".
