4:22 Also, compared to a Bagel which Americans consider "healthy", a donut is basically health food. Don't get me wrong, Bagels are delicious but not healthy.
Cheezels are very very unhealthy but delicious. If you want to see how unhealthy a Cheezel or Twistie is for you, just get out a cigarette lighter and set one on fire. They will burn like a firelighter. They have SO much energy. Take them camping because they do the same job and you can eat them and give up on the idea of a fire anyway.
11:16 Bundaberg Ginger Beer is like halfway between a beer or kombucha and a soda. It's carbonated without being too sweet, it's spicy, and refreshing. You can drink it straight or mix with it. If you home make ginger beer you know what it's like.
13:00 Actually living costs are weird here. Grocery food prices go up as you move away from the major cities, due to logistics, unless you use local farmer's markets or grow your own. May regional areas you can find market stalls by roadsides or even just honesty boxes for produce. But housing prices rapidly decrease outside the capital cities.
Overall Sydney is the most expensive, then Canberra and Brisbane are roughly equal, Melbourne and Perth roughly equal (Perth cheaper for housing and Melbourne way cheaper for food). Everything else is in a gradient based on how close to the relative capitals and how you consume. If you're in say the Riverina, a lot of fruit and veg is cheap, but beef costs more. if you're in say Rockhampton, beef is cheaper and a lot of fruits are more expensive.
