MAIN INGREDIENTS
Fritz and sauce is a classic Australian sandwich that's especially beloved by children. It consists of two slices of bread, a bit of tomato sauce, and fritz. Fritz is a type of sausage made of beef, lamb, and pork trimmings, starch, flour, and seasonings.
The butter creates a coating on the bread that stops a bread becoming soggy - my favourite tomato and pepper sandwiches would be horrible without butter because the bread would get wet from the tomato.

A Jaffle is the Australian name for a closed toasted sandwich. The name came from its creator Dr Ernest Smithers, from Bondi in NSW, who created and patented the Jaffle Iron in Australia back in the 1950's.

Vegemite is a thick, brown, shiny paste that is made from brewer's yeast, what's left at the bottom of the barrel when beer is made. The spread has a rich umami flavor and is often smeared on buttered toast in Australia, or stirred into recipes to deepen savory notes.
Vegemite may be the undisputed number one favourite Aussie spread, but at Australian Food Shop we know Aussies have plenty of other classics they love to chuck on a sanga.
For a burger to have "the lot" it has to have beetroot, egg, pineapple and bacon. The egg should be fried and runny and the beetroot and pineapple come straight from the tin. Iceberg lettuce, tomato, red onion might be involved, but aren't strictly necessary.
Butter and mayonnaise are the most commonly used spreads. The filling provides the main flavor of the sandwich, and the choices are nearly unlimited. Meat, fish, poultry, cheese, eggs and salads (tuna, chicken, egg) are all common protein fillings.
A typical Aussie barbecue is with sausages, burgers, steak, fresh seafood, bread and tomato or barbecue sauce, they sometimes include salad but it's mainly about the meat and fish (and of course a few stubbies – that's beer to the non-Australians).

What's America's favorite sandwich? More cheese, please. Grilled cheese, according to the data which revealed that 79 percent of people either "like" or "somewhat like" the ooey-gooey sandwich. That's no surprise, given that it's one of the most classic comfort foods.
