Butter Back On Menu
At least in Upper Hutt, lovers of pure butter can resist resisting buying butter because it has expanded in price beyond their budget.
PaknSave, Upper Hutt this week and for the last two weeks has been selling one brand of 500g pure butter for $4.99 and another brand at $5.02.
With butter unlike some other dairy products, the brand seems to make little or no difference to me with taste and longevity than the more expensive brands.
I am temporarily at least, out of the market for semi-soft 500g pure butter because PaknSave, UH is selling them for over $10 and no doubt at other supermarkets even dearer.
Whilst on the subject of dairy - yesterday bought a 1kg block of cheese for under $10 from the same PaknSave.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
