"The cost of groceries has risen substantially over the last year. Food and
non-alcoholic drinks rose by 7.9% in the year to May, with biggest increases in
dairy products (15.1%), breads and cereals (12.8%) and processed foods (11.5%).

Meat costs rose by 3.8%, but the absolute increase was high, with a kilo of
fillet steak costing up to A$60 for a kilogram.

Australians spend around 15% of their weekly food budget on meat and half that
(7.4%) on dairy products.

About 43% of householders say grocery prices are a cause of financial stress,
with half trying to reduce spending.

So how can you save money on meat and dairy products without skimping on
nutrients?"
