This cheese from ALDI is superb.

Agreed. Love that one.

Yep - great with some nice peppery crackers

Keto January has borne some very good cheese discoveries, but nary a cracker to be seen. Woe.

Not as sorry as I am. I'm even starting to go off bacon. Which is just weird.

Bought a few bottles yesterday, wasn’t that keen on it, nowhere near as good as Wainwrights which is 29p a bottle more in Lidl.

It’s funny you mention that, it’s normally very good, it’s all we use, but this recent batch has been the same, bloody awful.

Lidl have American week on at the moment and they do an amazing steak flavour tortilla chips.

These things must having crack in the flavourings as God they are addictive!

Not in the special buys section, the italian style sodas are back in

Orange / blood orange / lemon and mint

I say this every time but they're pretty good and the lemon/mint is a good for really basic mojito with some rum

They been a staple in my local Aldi since last summer...

I didn't spot that 'business as usual' IPA in Aldi today... they did however have tons of beer stocked. Some quick googling suggests ALDI have bought a ton of beers off local brewers to resale. Bought myself some warsteiner as I couldn't see reinbacher in cans.

Boxed, in glass bottles like this.

That's good value. 660ml bottles are 3 for a fiver in Tesco. So Aldi are charging £8.99 for Tesco's £10 volume.

Ah, Wobbly. If only I could remember those happy days!

Tried the online shop today due to the ten day prison sentence. Only two beers available, the Moretti copy and the one in the blue can. Ended up getting Deliveroo from One-Stop. Shame as I could have done a decent order.
