Dad Secret Weapons Part 1

I'm wondering if my dad views this food as an amulet. The reason I say that is when he goes over seas he takes it with him. Like hes going in to bat for Australia. Like it will protect him from any infiltration of alien cultures and especially anything to do with America. Around the breakfast table with our southern family as a child, I was surprised to hear it being refered to as Vaginamite. My dad, referes to it as Badger, coz when Aboriginal people say the word thats the way it sounds. Badge, amulet................... just some ideas.
