Australian Dictionary: In the Grocery Store

We've noticed a few differences in Australian English versus American English in the last few days, especially in the grocery store: 



  • Rocket = arugula 
  • Capsicum = bell pepper 
  • Fairy floss = cotton candy
  • Porridge = oatmeal
  • Chocolate buttons = chocolate chips
  • Rockmelon = cantaloupe 
  • Sultanas = raisins
