Consumer NZ says Countdown's second winter product price freeze is better this year, but it's lacking fruit.

Out of more than 300 individual items, only two are fresh vegetables- potatoes and mushrooms.

It did the same last winter.

Consumer CEO Jon Duffy says it'll be interesting if Foodstuffs doesn't follow suit.

"It would really underline many of the issues that my organisation and many others have been rabbiting on about for two years now, that there really is a lack of competition."
