The only thing I’d suggest we would see is national consolidation of the 4 CCA plants across Australia, the shipping costs would be far too high to import beverages from Europe.

Lion and former Newcastle NRL stars, including Andrew and Matthew Johns, have launched a new brewery called Steel City.
i would sugest that importing coke would be a “new coke” style fiasco. the taste of coke is different enough people would complain

It appears the beer is currently made elsewhere, but should be brewed in Newcastle soon.
I was surprised at how different Diet Coke tasted in the US/Canada. It tasted just plain better.

There are differences in water, but also in the USA they use corn syrup instead of sucrose (cane sugar) in the regular (sugared) Coke/Sprite/etc. drinks

On March 15, 2021, WHP Global acquired a controlling stake in Toys “R” Us. There are plans to reopen Toys R Us stores across the United States by the end of the year, but they would possibly be flagship stores, pop-ups, existing retail stores, mini stores and/or airport stores.
Better rebrand to Toys “R” Expensive.
I think it was a Simpsons joke. Or was it Family Guy.
Could’ve been Family Guy, I think Moe just flipped the “R” around on The Simpsons.
How intense can dark chocolate get?
Are they still pushing ahead with ranging Tesco products? Any time I go in there it seems to be a mish-mash of random products on clearance.
