 Included in the price drop are cereal, fruit, and snacks, with produce falling by around 7% on average.

 The price drop follows yesterday’s BBC Good Food Nation survey that revealed people were eating less nutritious food because they feel it’s now too expensive to buy fresh, with 19% of people spoken to saying they’re eating more ready meals and processed foods because its cheaper.

 The survey went on to show that 16% felt the cost of living had affected their healthy eating habits in some way, including being more health conscious because they can’t afford to get sick (18%) and eating less healthily due to stress (15%).

Before you head off on your weekly food shop, here’s a list of all the reductions to look out for:
