Bush Pepper

An Australian slang for when a food item is dropped on the ground (or any other unsanitary surface) but still looks "visually" good to eat. While there is still the potential that the item has picked up some small traces of contamination, the eater brushes off the risk with the phrase.

The term "Pepper" here refers to spice and the fact that when something is dropped on the ground, the little flecks of dirt resemble the same look as "cracked" Black Pepper. The term "Bush" refers here to that the spice has been collected from the ground, as if it was some type of "Natural spice".

Been around the bush

Referring to someone experienced in something. Like a dog who's been sniffing all around the bush every other dog pees at. He's well informed and experienced in the neighborhood.

"Yeah, he's really good at his job. He's been around the bush, that's for sure."
