criss-cross applesauce

Hiya - is criss-cross applesauce used in Australia at all? I've never heard it in the wild as a Brit. The reason I ask is because the saying comes from the way that "criss-cross" and "applesauce" rhyme in most US accents, whereas it doesn't in your own, so it feels a bit jarring to hear that on the audio file.

If it isn't used in Australia, do you object to me removing it? I wouldn't normally care about having au, but I'm concerned that not having the rhyme is inadvertently misleading if it's never actually used that way.
