Slightly related to this topic.
Have you noted a huge lack of "big name" international products being advertised here in Aus? ie... coca cola, pepsi, and such like. My husband told me last night that Australia has regulations stating that something like 80% of advertising here, has to be for Australian companies to protect their interests.

dunno about YOUR pasties, but i made the fatal mistake of grabbing one at a servo the other day. It would have been better off as a cricket ball than something for lunch!!
