ALDI & LIDL Food and Drink Worth Trying?
Discussion
Tried LIDLs packet noodles, the one priced 21p. I knew not to expect much from something so cheap but was taken by the fact that they had prawn flavour (which i always liked, and supermarkets don't do). horrible, would not be buying it again and unforunately I've got 3 more packs. If ever I'm dying of starvation I'll drench it in sirracha as the 'flavour' packet had no flavour at all. As cheap noodles go I maintain that KOKA is the best, and for up to 33p/pack the NISSIN DAMAE ones are the best.
as for the CIEN twin razor blades. they're perfectly fine for the job, not amazing but not bad either. I didn't get any irritation over the days after my first use, and I use the cheap £1 gillette foam too. as someone who doesn't shave often and it being a pack of 20 these will last me years.

Re Noodles. Secret is to ignore the stock. Make your own with Marigold or the like, then they're fine.as for the CIEN twin razor blades. they're perfectly fine for the job, not amazing but not bad either.

Anyone tried Aldis 21 day old sirloin?
If it's the one I think you're referring to, it's really good

I'll give it^ a try this weekend.
I must say, I still haven't found anything which comes close to the Toro Black Label in the fiver-ish price range. Really hope they get some more in at some point.
The rate it's going in my local you might struggle at the weekend!I must say, I still haven't found anything which comes close to the Toro Black Label in the fiver-ish price range. Really hope they get some more in at some point.
Aside from that my local Aldi seems to have a lot of new wines this past week.
Will investigate more...

Might try that this weekend. I found the Malbec I'd tried. It was Hereford Angentinian from the Co-Op. It was on sale for around £5 I think and I had 20% discount on top of that.
O/H came home Friday with a couple of bottles of Co-Op Argentinian Don David Maldec she'd won in an office raffle - seriously good. Even better is that she won four bottles but didn't want to carry them all on the train so that's next weekend sorted too...Edited by Riley Blue on Sunday 9th April 11:11
