Abstract
The rising price of food has been making headlines for the past decade. But prices have not been rising consistently across all food groups – and this has major health implications for New Zealanders.
Last week Stats NZ released food price data showing the biggest drop in prices in six years. The second quarter consumer price index, due out today, will give a broader overview of the inflationary pressures facing New Zealanders, including the cost of eating.
Despite the recent price drops, concerns over food security, food affordability and the nutritional quality of local diets have remained.
