The day of indulgence is nearly upon us with supermarkets fully staffed and trolleys overflowing.
There is always the last minute dash to the supermarket for fresh fruit, seafood and croissants but traditional treats of Christmas ham, pavlova, turkey and baby potatoes are the biggest sellers.
Kiwis are expected to plough through 690,000 servings of turkey and the equivalent of 326 Mini Coopers of ham in the next few days according to research from Countdown.
For the rest of the year bananas are the most popular fruit to pop in the trolley but for a few weeks they are knocked out of the basket by festive red strawberries - with 67 rugby fields worth expected to be consumed.
Countdown's General Manager Merchandise, Chris Fisher said cherries were also a big seller over Christmas.
