Australia’s Sh*ttest Regional Food
They're serving disgust-ation
Hi Guys,
My favourite Facebook page, Shit Towns of Australia, is running a poll to find out what is Australia's Shittest Regional Food. They’ve cut the list down to four finalists and if you come from South Australia, you should be proud you are three of the finalists.
These are the top four:
Pie Floater from Adelaide — A meat pie dumped upside down in a bowl of pea soup and topped with tomato sauce, the pie floater was almost certainly invented by accident.
Florrie (Horsham Victoria) — A flat, crumbed piece of steak wrapped around a slice of ham and a bit of cheese, often drowned in gravy to mask the awful taste. Rumour has it they were originally made of horsemeat and ham which is how Horsham got it’s name! (LOL)
Smiley Fritz (South Australia) — A variation of bung fritz (anus sausage) with marks resembling facial features, slices of Smiley Fritz are traditionally given to children in South Australian supermarkets so they can bite eye holes and wear them as a mask. Ideal for any budding Hannibal Lecter.
Frog Cakes (Adelaide) — Sponge, cream, and fondant sculpted into the shape of a frog’s head, the Frog Cake is the perfect dessert for people who want to pretend they’re Ozzy Osbourning an amphibian.
What a controversial list, hey? Here are some of the other finalists who have already been eliminated:
Dagwood Dog (nationwide) — The Dagwood Dog is a dodgy snag composed largely of roadkill and medical waste, slathered in enough batter to entomb a toddler before being jammed in a deep fryer.
Halal Snack Pack (nationwide) — Also known as the "meat box" or in South Australia, the "AB" (stands for "afterbirth", "abortion", or "anal belch" depending on who you ask), this sloppy mess of heart attack ingredients (kebab meat and chips drowned in several sauces) is perfect if you need an Allah-endorsed hangover remedy.
Scallop Pie (Tasmania) — Despite sounding like a Pornhub category, Scallop Pie is actually a Tassie treat filled with scallops drenched in so much curry sauce it resembles diarrhoea before being sealed in a greasy pastry pocket.
Snot Block (nationwide) — Also known by such stomach-churning names as "phlegm cake", "pus pie", and "vanilla slice", this custardy culinary crime is a staple of mediocre bakeries across Australia. The perfect treat if you are looking for something with the consistency of a botched boob job to tip you into a hypoglycemic coma.
The only one I’ve eaten on this list is the Dagwood Dog and Vanilla Slice and I can confirm that I only ever ate them once. Gross.
