A horror story about this:

Family friend's daughter's husband, has an iMBA, and forgot about taking a bannana out when flying into Sydney. Sniffing dog caught wind of it, the guy got busted and taken to court, and now can't really travel to Austrailia anymore.

Zut alors!

Congratu;ations..I hope it all goes well.

As for food..I wouldn't worry about taking too much, they feed you pretty well on those flights. If you do take anything remember to dump it in the quarantine bins when you get off the plane.

Australia has some pretty strict quarantine rules and the hassle of having an officer check your food to see if it's allowed in is very time consuming..and frankly not worth it. They seem to have gotten really tough on checking things lately..worse than I have ever seen them.
