Poll: What is New Zealand's most iconic identifier?

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

New Zealanders' identities are no longer just invested in items like jandals, the Buzzy Bee, or hokey pokey ice-cream.

Instead, according to an Auckland University of Technology study, Kiwis' modern identity is changing – and it's Māori culture, wine, oysters, flat whites, and the silver fern that's on the way in.
