I carefully check the label and try to only buy Australian made 100% food.
I never buy any food ever from China.

It's one of the richest food cultures in the world. If you've never tried sichuan peppercorn on mapo tofu, or pickled mustard greens on noodle dishes, I think you're in for a real treat.
These do involve foods from China though..
They have some really good foods. They also have some really unethical foods. When we only have a broad brush...
You can use safe Australian ingredients to cook the recipe.
Where in Australia grows Sichuan peppercorns? They're almost exclusively grown in China and the general regions nearby to my knowledge.
In Australia, tea and spices are imported predominantly from Asian countries.
Does that meaningfully restrict which foods / ingredients you can get?
No. Australia produces vast variety of food everything you could want to eat aside from more exotic stuff.
