Nothing better than an Ozzie pie and no Greek influence there.

No problem at all. As I said before they can call it "Bluey's Jungle Juice" for all I care. But as to the second part, Is that a rhetorical question?..or do you actually want an answer.?..If it's the second one, here's a list of things that Australians from all walks of life have invented and many of which have been marketed very successfully to the world. A few of them were in partnership with people from elsewhere but there was no copying involved.There's lots more in the field of science, medicine, the arts and everyday household application. You can take my word for this list. But if you have doubts, I invite you to check them all out of course. You can start with Wikipedia and work your way from there. May your research be fruitful and enlightening. It always is for me

Who's "they"?...The inventions or the Australians?
