Is there anywhere you can buy suet from these days! Want for doughboys (dumplings). Tried Palmy & Kapiti area.

I've seen shreddo in the supermarket still, its not in a box anymore, its in like a square margerine container.

Some butchers still have it, especially if you have a homekill butcher nearby.

dezzie, which department in the supermarket! Countdown or NW. I've tried all the butchers. They say the suet is usually removed before they get the carcass nowadays.

I have seen it in NW and Countdown, it is somewhere you don't expect it to be, cant remember where exactly. Not in fridges, possibly in baking section! Might be different from store to store though, might be best to ask in store.
I did ask at C/D Palmy biggles & guess what, both women had no idea what I was talking about.

Ok, checked in countdown when I went shopping. Our local one has shreddo in the oils section, as well as a couple of other brands. If you can't find it ask staff for "shortening" and they will know what you mean.
