I looked at the Pavlova pictures. I could feel my weight increasing just from looking.

I hope that pie floater thing tastes better than it looks and sounds. The pavlova looks absolutely decadent, but the pie floater has connotations I don't care for, besides sounding awful.

I'm afraid not Katie,
It's traditionally obtained from a supper type trailer, a caravan (a famous Harrys Meals de Wheels or something like that I think it isin Sydney, though Harrys near the Finger Wharf I also think is pretty well anchored these days)that someone sets up to feed the night club and late pub leaving staggerers or the local greasy spoon Cafe and what it looks and tastes like at stage probably does not matter too much - but probably better than raw chicken I feasted on one night out of a refrigerator when in a similar state of decay.

Pies are probably the el cheapiest ones you can get and a load of peas can have that mush appeal after a few - best to mix it all in.
You can get some super Pies by themselves from boutique Bakeries and even specoalist Pie shops, Beef and Burgundy, Cheese and Bacon, Curried Chicken and even a curried prawn one I found a few days ago.

here you go www.harryscafedewheels.com.au and there's now four locations but Wooloomooloo is the original and rightly so a national treasure - http://www.nsw.nationaltrust.org.au/harryscafe.html

And I'm not too sure whether Harrys does the pie floater as think it was originally an Adelaide delicacy

The pie floater is pretty awful looking. I think the timtams look good, though.

I don't like pie floaters at all. Don't you wonder who thinks these things up? I mean really, a meat pie floating in pea soup? Then again, some ideas that seem strange really work well together, like who thought of mint sauce with lamb?

If coming up with original food ideas were up to me, we'd still be eating berries and raw meat. And it isn't just that they think them up, but the ideas of how to cook them, too. Some things aren't even edible unless they are cooked a certain way.

I imagine a lot of people died, and someone finally noticed that they had eaten a particular berry just before that. I've heard that if you are stranded in the wild, it's safe to eat anything a bird eats. Is that true? I mean, I'm not eating anything a vulture likes.
