    Default Re: Do you have Walkabout bars in Australia?

    A while ago we had Crikey! bars.. Named after the favourite saying of our RIP animal star Steve Irwin... They had been thought up and planned out before he died, but were released just after he died.. I don't think they did very well, but you can probably still get them around somewhere... I was meaning to buy one to see what they tasted like but never got around to it and then I didn't see them around any more.

    Never heard of a Walkabout bar...

    Do you have a picture of one or the wrapper? So it's marketed as an Australian chocolate bar??

    "Walkabout" is a reference to like, a pilgrimage that our native Aboriginals would do... "He's gone walkabout" would meant someone has gone off on their own on a journey, of discovery or something, and would be gone quite a while...

    Like if someone is missing from work and someone is like "Where is Jim?", you could say "He's gone walkabout"... It could be taken as a bit offensive though if Jim happened to be Aboriginal.. As it usually is taken with any race specific things... Like, if there was a black guy named Bob and someone was like "Where's Bob?" and another says, "Bob is off buying some watermelons"... type thing...
    umm actually that's probably not really the same.. But anyway, never heard of a walkabout bar..
