Anzac biscuits: a culinary memorial

The article discusses Anzac biscuits and their role in the Anzac tradition. Anzac biscuits are made up of rolled oats, sugar, desiccated coconut, butter, flour, bicarbonate soda, boiling water and golden syrup. They serve as a reminder of the World War I, Gallipoli and the Anzac spirit and downplay the role of women during the war. Through the creation of these biscuits, women were able to contribute to one of Australia's most enduring forms of public memory: the remembrance of Anzac Day.
