A 1kg block of tasty cheese is now selling for between $16 and $18 at the country s three main supermarket chains.
Māngere Budgeting Services chief executive Darryl Evans said it has been months since its foodbank parcels included staple dairy products. We ve had no milk to give, no cheese, those items are either selling in the supermarkets or maybe going to some foodbanks but certainly our foodbank hasn t seen any of those items since the beginning of this year, he said. We ve not had any of those products to pass on to those who need it the most.
