Addictive Eaters Anonymous (AEA) is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from addictive eating.
AEA has members who have suffered from anorexia, bulimia and binge eating. Many have been underweight, overweight or obese; others were people of average weight yet suffered with an obsession with food. Members may have used exercise and other substances to try and control their weight. Before coming to AEA, members found that they were powerless over food, and unable to stop the food obsession.

In 2022, the Christchurch City Council applied to Taumata Arowai for chlorine exemptions, but on Tuesday was told these will fail.
Christchurch mayor Phil Mauger said he and fellow councillors were “outraged” and described it as the council being “forced to chlorinate our water supply.”
To be exempt from chlorination, the council would need to make substantial and expensive upgrades to its water supply network, according to a council statement.
“[E]ven then, it may not be possible,” it said.

What you need to know:
- The product is called Large $20 Acacia Serving Tray and was sold nationally.
- The product may be infested with Lyctus africanus (also known as the African powderpost beetle), a species not present in New Zealand.
- Kmart are no longer selling these products and will wait for instruction from MPI before destroying these.
Anyone who finds a suspected exotic pest is encouraged to call MPI’s hotline on 0800 80 99 66.
