I'm a Zimbabwean 🇿🇼 who has stayed half of her life in Malawi 🇲🇼

If I could pick one souvenir food wise it would be this garlic sauce from here in Malawi.

Will make a series of posts on this.

I'd not want Aus to be judged on Fosters for instance..

Hate to break it to you, but in the US, Fosters is absolutely marketed as the Australian beer 😂. I think the Foster's in our stores is brewed in Milwaukee, Wisconsin under license though.

I've never seen stuff like Toohey's or VB here. Next time I go to Aus, maybe I'll do a cheep beer swap and bring cans of Keystone Light, Natty Light, Miller High Life, some of our other "sex-in-a-canoe" beers, as in "fucking close to water".

    Hahaha! I wouldn't be surprised if old mate Paul Hogan (croc dundee) is still in the ads! I can't remember if theres a brewery still doing Fosters in Aus, I'm pretty sure the British just brew it somewhere on their patch as well.

    Haven't thought about Tooheys in years, seems to have gone out of fashion over in WA (Western Aus), the Queenslanders are probably still chuggin it though.

    If you do a cheap beer swap VB is def one for the swap, other potential water substitutes might be XXXX, and Great Northern. Interesting thing about those beers is they're way more popular in certain parts of the country and almost unknown in others.
