Australia: Koala Bear
And I'd say America is probably without an identifier, though with it's all-over-the-disgusting-board lack of decent taste we could probably lump McDonalds food into one single "food" category and sadly call it...no, I can't bring myself to say it even.

Have you ever been to Australia, gone into a restaurant and seen Koala on the menu? I hight doubt it. You have probably seen Kangaroo and Emu in some places, but it's not common. Yes, we do eat the animals on our coat of arms.
Please get your facts straight instead of posting fippant remarks.

mmmmhh - sitting in a Restaurant on Breakfast Creek having Moreton Bay bugs for starters and then Barramundi with a good Chardonnay. Gotta go there again.
Typical German -
there's plenty and it's all regional
but sausage is a runner up (not Scotland - they have Haggis) with many regional variations, like the White Sausage in Bavaria or the type that goes best with Green Cabbage in Northern Germany. Let's not forget Curry Wurst which was invented in Berlin and the best can be eaten in hamburg -Moenckebergstrasse, right in the city.
Bread -we have more bread types than the French have cheese. Just to mention some.

A few Aussie foods ......
Four n Twenty pie - about the only time I'd eat one is when I'm at the Footy - not much else available
