Burger Rings are crisps (aka chips) aren't they? I see the kids in school with them, they seem to be very popular, next time a kid has some I'm gonna pinch one lol

I felt obliged to try one since they apparently originate from Toowoomba, the lady @ Brumbies even gave me it for free, which should've made it taste better, but...nahhhh LOL
I never had them in the UK.

They should have them at your local Market Deli, you can buy Greek ones in tins for about 8 bucks, with 40 in them. Pretty sure they do them in Coles and Woolworths as well. They are a lot more expensive at the Supermarkets from memory. Wifes asleep so cant ask her yet. Once you start they are difficult to stop eating.

I do eat meat (chicken and fish), but maybe only once a fortnight or so...don't really enjoy it that much....

Had a crack at making Vietnamese cold rolls just yesterday and used free range chicken, fried it in peanut oil - divine. Apart from salmon, I'd recommend fillets of basa. Really versatile and I paid 6 bucks for 3 big fillets.
All these things exclusive to Australia as far as Im concerned.
