Auckland mum initially refuses to share ice cream with son - the video goes viral
An Auckland mum has gone viral on social media after she shared a video of her eating ice cream while her son had a tantrum, capturing a relatable moment in parenting.
Posted to TikTok yesterday, the 26-second clip shows Italian-Kiwi mum of two Rebecca Foster in a parked car with her 4-year-old son and baby strapped in the backseat.
Foster begins to eat a Propitious Mango Ice Cream - a viral product from China that resembles a real mango and is available in New Zealand - as her son helplessly cries out in envy.
But her son had just eaten an Oreo-flavoured ice-cream.
'You can tell by his very clean mouth,' the text on the video reads as viewers see a chocolaty smear around the boy's mouth.

Local Legends: Ria & Gerald Schouten
PHOTO: NICK BROOK The first Silver Fern Farms Clutha Leader Local Legend for August is for Ria and Gerald Schouten. "They do so much for the local Dutch community, especially the elderly," their nominator said. "They drive them to appointments and support them, helping to get personal belongs from home, do washing, visit them at home and ensure they are safe and well." The Schoutens came to Balclutha after emigrating from the Netherlands in 1982 with a family group of seven. "There was a Dutch Club which kind of ended as everyone got older and the children and grandchildren grew up Kiwi," Mr Schouten said. "But we always looked out for each other and still do. "Small communities help each other."

Pak'n Save customer stunned by 1.1kg rock in bag of potatoes
The customer found a 1.1kg rock in a Pam's bag of potatoes. Photo: TikTok/@memoriesmind93 Foodstuffs says a customer who found a stone in her bag of potatoes can have a fresh bag - and she doesn't even have to give back the rock. The woman posted on TikTok that she had just finished peeling potatoes from a Pam's bag bought from Pak'n Save. Among the potatoes was a large rock. When she put it on her kitchen scales, it weighed more than 1.1 kilograms. "You cannot tell me this is a potato because it weighs a kilo and then some," she said. Other people had commented on the video that it had happened to them, too. A Foodstuffs spokesperson said it seemed the potato-shaped, dirt-covered rock managed to sneak through the potato processing gate. "We appreciate the customer's surprise - it would have been problematic to peel and there's obviously not much nutritional value in boiled or roast rocks, so they've got every reason to call it out," they said. "The store is aware of the situation and will happily give the customer a replacement bag of potatoes, without having to return the original bag, or the rock."
