Australian shoppers pay more for food than the rest of the world.
Sydney people pay more for four items than residents of New York, Hong Kong and London.
On Channel 9, "Save money and eat healthily," on (Eat Well For Less), Ross. Greenwood (Ross Greenwood) said a recent study showed Sydney had the highest final price for apples, cheese, tomatoes and shredded meat.
"it's not cheap to live in Australia," he said. In terms of food, we paid for the most expensive price on earth. "
If cheese is removed from the shopping list, it would be cheaper to live in Sydney than in New York, Greenwood said.
Prices vary across Australia, he said.
In Perth, croissant's average price is 3.15 yuan more expensive than that in Paris, France.
Between states, residents of the Australian Capital Territory pay twice as much chocolate as the Northern Territory.
Greenwood did not give the exact name of the report he referred to.
However, according to news.com.au, the report is likely to be a global cost-of-living survey of the economics people. The survey analyzed 400 prices for 160 products in 133 cities around the world.
Sydney, it found, is the world's tenth-highest cost of living.
In the past, high food prices in Australia were linked to wages, industry regulation, population and supermarket monopolies.
