The Democracy Sausage: A Tasty Tradition at Australian Voting Locations.

Australians like to eat democracy sausages when they vote. It is a fun tradition like koalas and Vegemite. The sausage is grilled and put in bread with onions and ketchup.

Democracy sausages are sold at voting places. This helps schools and groups raise money. They sell them at embassies and even in Antarctica.

A website helps people find democracy sausages. It started in 2013 to show where to get food at voting places. The website now shows options like gluten-free and vegan sausages.

No one knows who called it a democracy sausage. Selling snacks at voting places started a long time ago. It began with bake sales and then sausage sizzles with grills.

The sausage is popular because voting is on Saturdays and required. It is a fun thing that brings people together. Even with early voting, people still go to get a sausage on election day.
