Doug, A pie floater is....er....a great Aussie contribution to world cuisine. It rivals the British fish and chips, or the American hamburger in culinary importance. A pie floater is a good old Aussie gristly meat pie, floating in a sea of mushy, rehydrated, boiled, dried green peas. Copious amounts of tomato sauce (or Worcestershire, for the culinarily adventurous) are added by the consumer in the process of consumption. An endangered species.
