It seems like it's virtually impossible for families on a benefit to afford healthy food.

Research shows two-children families receiving financial assistance would be 200-dollars short if they bought low-cost nutritional kai.

Health Coalition Aotearoa spokesperson Sally Mackay told Ryan Bridge it's clear low-income families are doing it tough, with drastic increases in food parcel demands.
