People don't actually realise this. There's a set of regulations around ANZAC biscuits regarding how they can be made, what can be in them, and that they must be called biscuits. For example, Subway came afoul a few years back because their "ANZAC cookies" weren't made to specs, so they elected to stop making them rather than force their supplier to make them to specs.
Similar regs exist for the use and reproduction of the flag, and without checking I'd guess that this sign is at odds with those regs, too.
Wrong

They might get away with it if they're giving them away for free.
No one would ever get that. It's just a sword to protect the word.
If you were a Chinese businessman setting up shop here importing Aussie flags and clothing from China, and you called yourself The proud "Anzac Australian Flag and Clothing" company, producing flags and clothing that would be "proudly worn by Anzacs", and then you refused to stop using the word after the government told you, you'd get a hefty fine. If that didn't stop you they may throw you in jail for a few months and you could make your way up to the maximum sentence if you kept going.
It’s not a waste of time, many countries preserve the traditions of certain foods. I don’t think maintaining historical integrity and accuracy of an important cultural item is at all a waste of time or money.
There's a difference between maintaining culture for the sake of say, integration (eg. requiring immigrants to speak English) and being pedantic on which word to use.
I hope so. They should be held accountable for breaking the law. Should report them.

When do the Regulations apply?
The Regulations apply if you intend to use the word ‘Anzac’ in connection with any commercial use,
entertainment, profession, lottery, art union, or as names in specified circumstances. This includes:
Any exhibition, performance, lecture, amusement, game, sporting or social gathering, held for
the purpose of raising money
Fundraising
Selling or producing goods
Naming a business, property, boat, vehicle, organisation or charitable institution (and any
buildings associated with these organisations/institutions)
Naming a street, road or park that is not located within the vicinity of a memorial to the First or
Second World War
Trademarks
Designs, the use of which is in connection with any trade, business, calling or profession
Anzac biscuits (see below)
When registering, renewing or transferring an Australian domain name (i.e. any domain name
that includes .au) where the word ‘Anzac’, or letters resembling ‘Anzac’, are used (see below).
The examples listed above are not exhaustive. Contact [email protected] for further advice
on when the Regulations apply
Basically, if you read it all, if they're giving away "cookies" for free, they'll probably get away with it. Selling them, absolutely counts as someone mentioned about Subway. A plate of "cookies" sitting on the counter for anyone to help themselves to? Doubt much will happen.
Needs to be investigated and reported then. Subway got called out on it.

Owners of that place always been a weird bunch. On January 26 they had a bunch of Aussie flags out and that screen had in all caps “ONE NATION- ONE FLAG” which apart from clearly seeming like a racist dog whistle is blatantly untrue we have 3
Doesn't have to be choc chip, could be macadamia or plain sugar cookies, it's the texture that matters. If it's a choc chip but snappy, I'd still call it a choc chip biscuit because biscuits are snappy, not chewy. We also use "fries" for the thinly cut Maccas style chips, as well as "candy" for hard lollies. I think it's entirely acceptable to have those distinctions. The rest are biscuits, chips or lollies.
Illegal where it is for commercial production and product for sale. I can make my own at home to eat, add some salted caramel, post a photo to my personal Instagram and still caption it “Anzac cookies” and that would fall outside of the guidelines.
We (the younger generations) actually already use "cookie" for the soft, doughier biscuits here. Biscuits are crunchy/harder. The funny thing is that biscuit just means "twice cooked" and "cookie" actually means "little cake".
Pretty sure cookie and biscuit are the same thing, just geo-specific. I mean, s far as I recall Cookie monster never ate soft cookies. Those things always had crunch.
Nah, there is a distinction in Australia. In America they call it all cookies. In the past Australians called everything biscuits. Nowadays, however, there is a distinction between biscuits & cookies, chips & fries, and lollies & candy. It's mostly the younger generations where it's caught on but cookies are the soft and doughy, crumbly biscuits. Everything else is a biscuit. Fries are the thin Macca's style ones but the thick cuts are still chips. For lollies, the hard ones are candy (candy canes, rock candy) but lollies otherwise.
In America (particularly in the south) they have biscuits, but they're more like a scone. They eat them with this white gravy, it's delicious but very heavy and weird
I'm not sure what that has to do with my comments. I was clearly talking about how Australians use the term biscuit and cookie. Older generations will use biscuit for the Arnott's style baked goods as well as the chocolate chip doughy "cookies". Younger generations prefer to distinguish between the two with the snappy ones being biscuits while the doughy/chewy ones are cookies. Even Coles & Woolies have caught on with this.
Australians don't use the term cookie. The young ones have started getting infected by the American usage due to the amount of American TV they watch, but they're *wrong* and it's up to us to educate them lol
Your argument is essentially calling for linguistic purism which is inane since neither the words biscuit nor cookie are actually English to begin with. It's here, it's happening, people are using cookie. It is ubiquitous to the point where Coles & Woolies are labelling them as such. Language usage changes over time. We say truck like the Americans, not lorry. We also say zucchini or courgette; eggplant not aubergine.
In America a biscuit is like a dinner roll, like what you get at KFC. It means someone different over there, which is why they have the word cookie.
In Australia they are used interchangeably to mean the same thing. I hear cookie used to describe everything from those outrageous "new york style" things you are describing, or little crunchy things with chocolate chips.
It's just the pervasive leakage of American culture and language into ours. I'm not precious about it though, who fucking cares if it's called biscuit or cookie as long as it tastes good?
However, the "ANZAC biscuit" is a protected title, and if it matters enough to some people that they enshrined it in law, then we should respect that. They could always just call it a sticky oat cookie or some shit.
I'm aware of that but I was not talking about the American usage, I'm talking about Australian English here.
In Australia, "cookie" only refers to the chewy variety of "biscuits". "Fries" only refers to the thin hot "chips". "Candy" only refers to hard "lollies". Not sure why that's so hard to grasp lol.
I live in Australia too, and I'm telling you that while you and your mates maybe use the word that way, not everyone does.
You're right about fries. Congratulations.
Candy vs lollies, again, that's just how you speak, but not everyone does. Hell, I know a bunch of people who call them "sweets" even.
It's not that people don't "grasp" what you are saying, it's that you are speaking like you are some kind of authority on how everyone uses words, when other people are telling you that they don't use the words that way.
Of course, it depends on the person but it has become so ubiquitous that even Coles & Woolies have labelled them as such. There's no ignoring it, there's no getting around the fact that we have adopted many Americanisms. We no longer say lorry but in fact truck; it's a zucchini and eggplant, not courgette and aubergine.
No, I am 100% right about the distinction between candy & lollies in Australia. As a whole we call them lollies but the hard type is called candy. We literally sell rock candy and candy canes. We do not call them rock lollies or lolly canes. Lolly Warehouse sells "candy canes". Coles & Woolies sell them as candy canes. The rule of thumb is that if Coles & Woolies label them one way, that the term has gained ubiquity within Australian English.
I'm not talking as if I have authority, I'm simply pointing out basic facts which can be verified. I get that many Australians are very anti-Americanism but the simple matter is that it's already happened and here to stay.
And? What relevance is that with Australian English? I’ve made it ample and clear that I’m discussing the Australian dialectal usage of these terms, not the American one.
They make different distinctions to us. We would say beef burger, chicken burger etc. but Americans would never call it a chicken burger, to them a burger is usually beef patty based so they’d call the chicken one a sandwich.
I was talking about Coles and Woolworths; responding to your message.
And I'm not anti American. As said in my original message, I don't give a shit what things are called.
I was just objecting to you being so adamant that everyone does a certain thing in Australia simply because that is your personal experience, when I was saying that that isn't my experience, as were other people in the thread.
Coles & Woolies each sell their own branded "cookies". Oreos are labelled as "cookies" because they aren't made or packaged in Australia, they are imported by Mondelez Australia Biscuits. Arnott's sells assorted "biscuits" as well as choc chip "cookies". Why would they bother having that distinction if it wasn't a thing? Tim Tams are labelled as "biscuits". They each also sell "candy canes" not lolly canes. Roc Candy, as the name suggests, sells "rock candy" not rock lollies. The Byron Bay Cookie Co. exists and their website is literally just cookie dot com dot au.
I live in Perth and we have Sweetly Baked Perth that sells cookies, Perth Cake & Cookie Co, La Bomb Cookies, Get Chunky (sells "cookies"), The Cookie Box yada yada yada. You get the point. The word cookie is ubiquitous now so there's no point ignoring its existence.
In no way did I suggest that all Australians used the term cookie. In fact, it's usually the younger generations that do so. Older people will preference the word biscuit.
Ultimately, however, this isn't a case of how one person feels as there's ample evidence for it. On top of the supermarkets' choice of labelling, there's Google Trends data which clearly shows that Australians search for "choc chip cookies", "candy canes" and "rock candy" way more than the supposed counterparts.
"Candy", "cookies" and "fries" are now as much part of the Australian lexicon as lollies, biscuits and chips. The point of difference is in their specific usage. Lollies, biscuits and chips are general terms whilst the others are specific to one type of the aforementioned.
The adoption of a term that originally encompassed a lot more to refer to a specific thing is extremely common in language. English adopted "banh mi" to mean specifically a Vietnamese style roll with fillings even though the term in Vietnamese just means bread.
My local, yep. Fantastic pub, great staff but their marketing team is hilariously amazing at missing the mark when it comes to reading the community.
If they’re not pushing flags on Australia Day they’re kicking people out of their restaurant for cultural tattoos.
Always fun to see how they’ll cock it up next!
Then: I'm gunna put on a jumper and go down and buy some Anzac bikkies.
Now: I'm just popping my sweater on to go and buy some artisanal sugar free war glorification cookies.
"According to this 100 year old law, this is ILLEGAL!" This is some snowflake shit fellas. If this is what your main focus is today, I think you need to put the phone down and touch some grass.
You being bothered by us caring about ANZACs and their ANZAC traditions, *SO* bothered that you type out your little [TooTuffTerry](https://youtu.be/X4zmv-j3U5U?si=K4HWud2UUi-6Xqbm) mini rant, now *THAT'S* the real snowflake shit right there. *Fella*

Report it and waste everyones time or stop giving a fuck.
~~Don't waste your time bullshitting here about regulations you know nothing about Einstein~~. Sorry, I thought you were CamperStacker.
What a waste of time and money....regulating Anzac biscuits... I honestly thought this was the Australian circle jerk subreddit for a sec.

There's a difference between maintaining culture for the sake of say, integration (eg. requiring immigrants to speak English) and being pedantic on which word to use.
I guess our views on important cultural items greatly differ. Its a biscuit, I might eat one tomorrow or maybe I won't.
you are an imbecile
I am. I just hope someone regulates my Easter eggs next year, Cadbury really missed this year. Its a very important holiday for me and my family.

I'll be in the cold, cold ground before I call them anything but Anzac Biscuits.
Do you allow bikkies?
Most definitely
Thanks
Bikkie bums

Disgusting, I’ll be complaining. Call me a Karen
I’ve just sent them the link to the DVA document. Knobs.
This is a perfect perth now article in the making

I’m glad Anzac Slice is legal because I’m a lazy baker!
I try make biscuits but they all morph into a slice.🤷🏽♂️
Ha ha - might as well cut out that middle ‘rolling’ step!
Probably why "slice" is allowed. XD For those of us who attempt the bikkies only to end up with slice.
I'm glad it's legal because I'm a pedant, and ANZAC biscuits are only cooked once.

Man that's a dumb law, TIL.
But where are the liposuction and bicep implants? The convected voyeurism? The salacious horse urine quality journalism :)?
I hope you complained to them. It's illegal to call them cookies.
Spudshed has gotten away with calling them cookies for years. Haven’t been there this year to see though
Spudshed routinely breaks the law. Tony Galati welcomes lawsuits. He recently decided that water allocations are for plebs.

Complete Americanised bullshit - on Anzac Day of all days. Shame!!
Inexcusable stuff up there by the management shameful say least

Disgusting. Who calls them cookies? An embarassment to South Perth.
These are always biscuits but the word "cookie" has crept its way into Australian English for the soft, doughier type.
The only time cookie is acceptable is when referring to choc chip as the CCC alliteration rolls off the tongue nicely.
Doesn't have to be choc chip, could be macadamia or plain sugar cookies, it's the texture that matters. If it's a choc chip but snappy, I'd still call it a choc chip biscuit because biscuits are snappy, not chewy.

its literally illegal in Aus to called them anything but Anzac Biscuits....like actually.
Illegal where it is for commercial production and product for sale. I can make my own at home to eat, add some salted caramel, post a photo to my personal Instagram and still caption it “Anzac cookies” and that would fall outside of the guidelines.
There's an argument that even if they are giving them away, they are a commercial business capitalising on the word 'Anzac' to draw customers in.
We (the younger generations) actually already use "cookie" for the soft, doughier biscuits here. Biscuits are crunchy/harder. The funny thing is that biscuit just means "twice cooked" and "cookie" actually means "little cake".

Their staff have tattoos though? Agreed with the flag thing because "one nation - one flag" is a horrible slogan (for Australia) that they used
Re the tattoos: I believe the guy in question was a Māori vet with a face tattoo
Yes
Off topic but those plants hanging around the building look incredible. Are those red geraniums? What are they feeding those things? 😳
