Plenty of iconic Aussie snacks didn't deserve to die but Australia has had a slightly sordid history when it comes to keeping our snacks free of racist and homophobic undertones.

Here are five Aussie snacks that you won't find in 2018 because they rightly deserved to die.

In sad news for tiny marsupial chocolate enthusiasts Australia-wide, Cadbury recently killed the Easter Bilby. It's dead and we won't be seeing it this Easter. While Lifehacker has taken a look at some Aussie snacks that have gone the way of the dinosaur in the past - there's plenty of others that we've missed that deserve both recognition and acclaim.

In what I can only call "a crisis of faith", I have made the trend known as "dessert hummus" and found it to be very pleasing. When it was first (gently) suggested I explore dessert hummus by my (sweet and understanding) editor, I demanded a phone call, so alarmed by the concept was I.

If we learned anything from LadyDoritoGate, it's that women hate dumping chip crumbs into their wide-open mouths. But maybe this has nothing to do with keeping up appearances; maybe these savvy women are saving the crumbs for clever, delicious uses.

What a time to be a woman! Not only do we finally have a female Colonel Sanders, but Doritos has announced that they will be producing a quieter, less messy, more female-friendly chip.

These past few years have not been kind to Australian snack lovers. Childhood favourites have been culled and the nation grieved for the loss of a number of iconic local treats. We look back at five local favourites that are gone forever.

Steamed edamame, sprinkled with a little salt, is a fine snack or appetiser, but edmame that is sauteed in butter and garlic, and then sprinkled with some seasoning, is impossible to stop eating.

Awards season is rapidly approaching, which means you should be watching lots of movies - so that you may express your smart and good movie opinions - and eating lots of snacks. A big bowl of fluffy, flavorful popped corn is the obvious, correct choice, but if you find yourself getting a little bored of the basic butter-and-salt situation, we have some ways to branch out.

If you have kids, opening up a bag of cookies means opening up a flood of questions: "What is that?" "Where'd you get that?" "Can I have some?" "Can I have it all?" "Can that be my dinner?"

As a person who writes a column dedicated to lazy meals, I see a lot of recipes and videos for "simple" and "easy" dishes.. Most are shot from an overhead angle and include too much grade F cheese and ranch dressing for even my liking, but I came across something in my normal course of late-night Imgur browsing.

Hello friends, and welcome back to Will It Sous Vide?, the column where I usually make whatever you want me to with my immersion circulator. Today we're sous vide-ing an iconic, spicy and saucy little number: the famed chicken wing.

Maybe I was naive, but I always believed boneless wings were… wings? I never gave too much thought to how they got boneless, but I'm not a butcher, so why should I worry about it? But then I came across a recipe for making boneless wings at home, and, well, I'm a little bit shook.

In the great game of lunchbox snack trading, few items hold as much clout as a a violently pink or -- if you're very lucky -- tie-dye fruit roll-up. Though I still have a soft spot for the confection, I would hesitate to include it in my five-a-day count. Luckily, you can get more fruit in your fruit snack by making your own.

Lord Of The Fries is giving away free fries today to celebrate National Fry Day. (Yep, that's a thing, apparently.) Here's what you need to know to score your freebies!

Do you really want potato chips, but all you have are potatoes? I totally feel you. Sure, you could preheat your oven and start baking (or put on pants and go to the store and buy a bag), but what if I told you that you could have delicious homemade potato chips in just a few minutes using your microwave? Dreams do come true.

To celebrate National Doughnut Day, Krispy Kreme will be handing out free Original Glazed Doughnuts today between 5:30am and 11:59pm. Hurrah! Here's how to claim your freebie.

If you hosted a Passover Seder last night, you may have found yourself with a few sheets of leftover matzo this morning. Though the unleavened bread is a bit bland, that lack of prominent flavour is exactly what makes it the perfect foundation on which to build a snack-y masterpiece.

Given the festive nature of the holiday season, cooking can veer towards the elaborate, so it helps to have some quick and easy dishes that impress without a ton of effort. As such, I recommend that everyone keep a stock of puff pastry in their freezer, and use it liberally to whip up appetizers, snacks, and desserts.

Taking care of babies is physically draining. Not only do they prevent you from sleeping the amount you would like but, if you are breastfeeding, they are literally feeding off of you. It is therefore very important to keep new parents fed, and providing tasty, easy meals is one of the nicest things you can do for them.
