Get the Eusky mug.
Australian term for "portable cooler".
The word "Esky" is in fact a brand name produced by the company Nylex. The term originates from the word "eskimo" obviously for its cold connotations.
Its popularity has become so great during the years that the brand-name has now been used to describe all types of portable coolers whether made by the Esky Brand or not.
They come in many shapes, sizes and colours, but the most well known kind is normally used to store beers and ice. Every good aussie will have a nice large Esky ready for that next bbq occasion.

Get the Esky mug.The first fruit or vegetable that begins to go off in an esky, most commonly a piece of broccoli. With a piece of broccoli, this becomes apparent as it begins to go yellow and limp. It signifies the short-lived future and imminent demise of the other perishable items within the esky, much as the death of a canary in the mines warns the miners that immediate action must be taken if they wish to live.
