Default There's Hope for Us Yet Down Under

Little piece in this morning's paper extracting the juicy bits from a
couple of surveys. Apparently 78% of evening meals are prepared at home.
Consumption of salads, yoghurt and bottled water is up, hamburgers and
fizzy drinks is down. The most common takeaway food item is the
sandwich; the statistical average Australian ate 20 last year, followed
by 18 buckets of chips and 12 burgers.

A different survey found that people on more than $85,000 per annum
preferred Thai when eating out, the paupers opting for Chinese - not
surprising since it tends to be more expensive. The other choices,
Italian and Indian, were also ranked differently, but I don't know what
indicates.

Just thought you'd like to know.
