Fish.

Also macadamias, and lillipilli. And the cabbage tree palm. Warrigal Greens.

Coconuts, I expect.

I am yet to believe the humble blackberry is a cultivar.

Possibly kangaroo meat? Boomers such as the Eastern Grey are pretty unmanipulated, and taste like venison.

But mostly fish. And lobsters/crays/crabs.

Yeah, but not the Gen Z kangaroos. They've been manipulated by social media their entire lives. Some taste like beef, some taste like chicken, and some refuse to be eaten at all! When the older generations tell them to just let themselves be hunted, they say, "OK, Boomer!"

...The word has an alternate meaning here, but okay.

... I honestly can't tell if you think I didn't get that when I made a joke (apparently not a good one, judging from the downvotes) based on the double meaning, or if you are making a really, really dry joke in return. If it's the latter, nicely done!
