GINGER TREATS!
Ginger is a special product in Australia, produced
only in Queensland. The center of production is Buderim, in Queensland's
Sunshine Coast. Buderim
Ginger is c
onsidered
by many the world's finest ginger producer, and as consumers of
its fine products for over 30 years, we agree. No visitor to Australia
should leave without both tasting Buderim Ginger's products, and
bringing some home when you leave. There a vaqriety, form ginger
marmalade to candies, so whatever your tastes they can be staisfied.
One of our favo
rites
are Gingerbons, a small candy that has a touch of Queensland grown
cane sugar to produce a delicious bite-sized bonbon. Or perhaps
their variation on Turkish Delight appeals - a smooth ginger center
covered with dark chocolate.
In addition to the prepared products,
ginger can be bought in simple dried fruit and crystallized form.
Experience has taught us that the
return trip - from Australia to the US or anywhere against the spin
of the Earth - that jetlag is worse. Ginger's been shown to reduce
these effects for many people, and reduce travel sickness, so this
is just the time to try it out. "I'm eating the candy/rich
dark chocolate covered confection for my health and so I can function
better at work" has a nice ring to it, we think.
If all this sounds like advertising,
it's not. We just like their stuff, and
want
to let you know.
There's a factory
you can visit and learn first-hand how ginger is produced (and get
samples!), as well as farms nearby. And just a few miles away, at
Beerwah, is the Crocodile Hunter's Australia
Zoo, and the magnificent surf and sand of the Sunshine
Coast. All just 60 miles from Brisbane.
Let us know, and we can include
Buderim Ginger and the Australia Zoo in your itinerary. Or, if you
