Editor's Notes
- http://www.australia.com/explore/cities/adelaide/sa-hahndorf.aspx Germans have played a significant role in the history of post-colonial Australia, with people of German descent making their way to Australia with the first fleet. The majority of the early German settlers made for South Australia in the 1830’s -1840’s when a large number of Lutherans fled Prussia as religious refugees to settle in the Barossa Valley. Many of the migrants were farmers in Germany, and as such they made significant progress with early colonization, particularly within the wine culture.This history is still very present today in townships like Hahndorf and Barossa where the German culture and influence can be seen within the architecture, street names, and food and wine. Over 700,000 people of German descent now live in Australia.
- In both Germany and Australia, technological advances have increased the capacity to distribute foods, providing greater varieties of foods from great distances. Whilst German migrants living in larger cities in Australia may benefit from the trade culture by having a number of native German foods and beverages available to them, the options will be far more limited in smaller cities and regional areas. Also in both countries, the change from smaller grocers into larger supermarkets has forced many smaller independent grocers out of business.
- German cuisine is quite unique in the way that it has traditionally relied strongly on preserved foods. The reason for preserving foods is so that Germans can utilize their ingredients from harvest throughout the year and also because growing conditions are limited, particularly in Northern Germany, due to long winters.
- As mentioned previously – The Australian Dietary Guidelines reveal the issue of distribution of food for some regional areas of Australia, particularly for perishable items. With this in mind, in some locations it may be practical for German migrants to apply their traditional cultural methods of preserving some foods. However, for some regional areas of Australia, preparation and storage conditions may not be suitable due to the difference in climates between Germany and Australia. Hygiene is a huge consideration and concern surrounding food preservation, especially when dealing with raw meats. Food-borne diseases and food spoilage can result from poor practice. Refrigeration could potentially be utilized to store preserved foods where climate is an issue. If German migrants weren’t able or willing to substitute some of their native foods with suitable and nutritious alternatives in Australia, they could risk malnutrition and face chronic diseases associated with malnutrition.
- I would have liked for our group to work together to look further into the availability of specific German foods within different areas of Australia. Also, to look closer at specific serving sizes and how they would compare with the Aus dietary guidelines. I’ve separated the references onto the additional slides to outline the sources that I found.
