Actually the cost of food in the UK is quite cheap compared to Australia. Even for fresh fruit and vegetables.

We were there up until the middle of last year and I've a friend who just came back from the UK and Ireland and she said the same thing. They were there for 2 months visiting family and she was quite surprised at how cheap it was shopping in supermarkets over there compared to here.
