ALDI & LIDL Food and Drink Worth Trying?

OK - so you need to soak the TTD oats overnight as well then. I will try that, presumably the soaking in milk takes part in the fridge?
Have just checked the packet, and there's no mention of pre-soaking the oats.
No I don't soak the TTD oats when making porridge, only when making muesli.Have just checked the packet, and there's no mention of pre-soaking the oats.
For porridge, measure of oats, I also put raisins and sultanas in for sweetness, plus chopped dates if we have any. Milk. Full power microwave 3 mins, stir. Then 30% power for another three, stir. Then judge if it needs a little more time, if so quick blast on full welly stirring every minute or so until texture correct.
For me the mechanical action of the stirring is necessary, but prefer the larger oats as they did take longer to digest, hence even lower GI.

I have to wonder - why are Aldi having so much horse gear for sale - I wouldn't have thought there was that much call for a discounter type store to stock it 
you could say the same about thier recent Ski equipment special - not exactly a cheap hobby or holiday.Same goes for horses. My Mum is a pensioner on a very limited income, but has two horses in her field as pets. You really don't have to be shockingly loaded to have a horse, I remember my council estate cousin having one in cheap stabling facilities near the M25 when we were kids. Again, it's not the cheapest pet or hobby in the world, but that doesn't mean you have to pursue it with the most expensive equipment or clothing.
Love Aldi. one opened not 2 mins walk away recently. the buffalo mozzarella di campagne both in the big ball and the pearls are to die for. and cheap for brilliant quality too. lovely with Germanos olive oil and roast garlic chilli sauce.http://www.hot-headz.com/germanos-chilli-sauce-in-olive-oil
Not food, and hope no one is eating. But can I turn the topic to Aldi loo paper 
I grabbed the second highest priced one when there, was a brown packet. What I didn't realise was that it is fragranced, and rather strongly too. So now the bathroom smells like a glade plugin.
Not had fragranced paper before, as we normally avoid additional chemicals, but it is a nice addition.

Shea butter, the ring piece will welcome it after a hot curry

I have an Aldi ski jacket which is on its 5th season this year, it cost me £10 and does everything I need it to do.
I got a cheap Aldi one and you end up with your back drenched in sweat, I was very surprised!lost in espace said:
