Food – essential stuff, and finding it out on the road is a
surprising experience.
For example, we have recently travelled through central QLD
and found roadside stalls, often unmanned and with a simple honesty box, that
have provided us with some of the most tasty, fresh and cheap food you could
imagine. We have recently found avocados and tomatoes (half a dozen avos for
$2.50 and 2kgs of farm fresh tomatoes for $2) that have provided us with tasty
and healthy lunches with bananas fresh from the farm (a dollar a kilo or
thereabouts) for dessert. On top of that we have come away from our friends’
place with a huge bag of sweet mandarines from their fruit trees.
Country butchers are also pretty good news too with some of
the tenderest meats we have eaten plus some interesting smallgoods and pies
etc. One in particular is the "Continental Butcher" in Wangan (near Innisfail) who has some superb products.
We are enjoying this gourmet travelling!
