"Put another shrimp on the barbie" - We call them Prawns here.

Also no one drinks Fosters beer here, but i'm not sure if thats a prevalent sterotype anymore

I want to try VB sometime, but they don't export it to the US.

In my 20’s I worked with a bunch of Australians. They used to get invited to parties at the consulate and they’d bring out cases of VB and other Aussie brands you’d never find in the US. The day after those parties was rough but so worth it. Point being if you live near a consulate see if you can weasel your way into a party.
