Those answers pretty much match mine too, but then I am Victorian by birth and most of childhood so that's not helpful :-)

Agreed with naturalredhead on the fruit drink boxes - they're poppers!

> Ketchup, as far as I know, has more ingredients than tomatoes and salt

you mean tomatoes and sugar... If I remember correctly, a third of commercial tomato sauce is sugar :-)

I would do this meme if it was an automated test which presumed to tell me what my dialect is. "You speak Estuary English" and things like that.

23 - We called them poppers in Townsville.
24 - I say togs! that's what most other people say in Townsville also.
25 - a bogan

There are some questions on the original test which I think could hint at Australian dialectical differences - for example number 20. I call the game tiggy, my NSW cousins call it tips. Number 19 might also work.
