Popular Post Ken Gargett Posted January 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2021 the annual australia day lamb ads have become a very popular thing. some are more fun than others and a lot of those appearing probably not so well known offshore. most of the last decade or so are here. http://www.adnews.com.au/news/a-look-through-12-years-of-mla-s-epic-summer-ads plus 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bijan Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 It's interesting in that a quick check affirms that here in Ontario Canada most of our lamb comes from Australia. But I've only seen New Zealand lamb (and local lamb) advertise the country of origin. https://oec.world/en/visualize/tree_map/subnational_can/import/35/show/10204/202008/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzz Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 A very odd ad, though, considering that NSW is the largest lamb producer. Qld producers less than 1% of Australia's lamb, compared to 25% from NSW. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qlders. 2. those who want to be Qlders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ads target consumers and not producers i would be surprised if we ate more than anywhere else in australia. or at least the difference was more than minimal. although i am slow cooking lamb shanks for dinner! i'd like to think that we had less vegans but sadly my own family contributes!
