I just cracked a Foster's in honor of the Aussies.

I don't think they actually drink Fosters in Australia and I also think that it is made in Canada but hey, it's better than Bud so enjoy.

I'm not sure where it's made but I've actually never seen an Aussie drink one. Ever!!

Their equivalent of Molson Canadian/Bud tends to be Victoria Bitter or Carlton Draught.

And Tully - the Port Adelaide match isn't until tomorrow my time. 21 hours from now.

I ate one once at an Outback Steakhouse back home. That's a whole lotta onion.

Have never even heard them mentioned here let alone seen someone eat one.

Oh - this could be why. Fuckers.

The name of the dish comes from its menu name at Outback Steakhouse ("Bloomin' Onion"), which claims to be the dish's inventor. The owners of Scottys Steak House in Springfield, New Jersey also claim to have invented this dish in the 1970s. The dish was a charter feature of the Outback Steakhouse restaurant chain when it opened in 1988, and remains prominent on its menu. Its popularity has led to its adoption as an appetizer at various other restaurant chains, most notably Lone Star Steakhouse & Saloon, where it is best known as the "Texas Rose." The blooming onion is usually served with a restaurant-specific signature dipping sauce.

Despite the implied association with Australian cuisine due to Outback Steakhouse's branding, the dish is unknown in Australia and rarely served outside of the United States.
