People living in some of Australia's remotest communities have been sharing photos revealing the staggering prices they are being forced to pay for basic groceries.
The photos, submitted to a parliamentary inquiry into food security and prices in Indigenous communities, include a $16 pack of sausages, a 3-litre container of milk for $7.30, a tin of Spam for $7.70 and apples for $8.30 a kilo.
The issue of price hikes in remote communities made national headlines in March, when a fed-up woman from Palm Island voiced her disgust at an $82 packet of lamb chops.
