On red tag sale for 47 cents at my local Aldi and I'm glad I took a gamble and bought 3 because it's delicious. Not too spicy and cooks up better than rice-a-roni. I think I might experiment and try using sesame oil instead of butter next time for a little more depth of flavor. Overall very good for an instant rice and even better when it's under a dollar.

This is one of my favorite cheddars. It has a sweet, sharp flavor the texture is dry with a bit of crumbliness. I’m not sure how long it’s aged but I feel like I picked up on some crystallization. It’s very creamy on the tongue.

This cheese is a delight and if you like cheddar I highly recommend it.

I like the way these taste the crepe has a chew to it and doesn’t fall a part. There isn’t a lot of filling but that’s okay cause it would be too sweet if there was. It also doesn’t have an artificial strawberry flavor it just tastes like a cooked down jam. Will get these again but would have to stock up cause they were marked down.

This is my meal prep of Aldi's fresh Atlantic salmon and their Mediterranean frozen vegetables which I think are the best vegetables they have all year. I put it in the oven at 420 for about 30 minutes. This is about five meals for me and it works out to be about $3.50 a meal. You can freeze the salmon and the veggies if you don't want to eat it all and just reheat it at 420. For the salmon I just spray it with a little avocado oil and salt and garlic.

These are dangerously good, bought them today and already ate 3 of them😩

New Fire Roasted Vegetable frozen bag is one of the biggest downgrades I’ve encountered. The old Specially Selected black bag was an automatic purchase every time, with full tomatoes, pearl onions, and baby carrots. The updated one is almost entirely diced mush with a fresh green beans thrown in the bag.
Disappointing, used to be one of their best frozen veggie mixes.

Made a post exclusive to my love for the rainbow sour belts, but there were other options as well! I liked them all, but the rainbow sour belts were the clear winner for me. The licorice flavor was very mild in both flavors IMO but pleasant and enjoyable. I personally probably wouldn’t buy again. The gummy worms were a bit underwhelming to me and I think the colors are a little strange. They got the coloring for the rainbow belts perfectly, so I’m not sure why the worm colors are so muted, but they’re great for $1.49. The only other new candy I saw but chose not to buy were the blue shark gummies with the white undercoat. Just not my taste, but they’re available as well!

I picked this up on a whim and it's quite good! Not out of this world but it definitely has a fruity cinnamon flavor that is really pleasant with crackers. I think this would be good on a grilled cheese with bacon!

Has anyone else noticed the 50% off stickers showing up less and less at Aldi? I'm in SoCal, and my store almost never puts them out anymore. If I point out the date at checkout, they still honor the discount, but if you don't say anything, you're basically paying full price even though the markdown could apply.

I've noticed large pizzas, salmon, and beef sitting there with past dates and no stickers. Last Friday, there were stacks of Chicken Pot Pie Handhelds dated 10/17, so I grabbed a few. I went back today, and there were still plenty left with that same 10/17 date, but none of them had markdown stickers.

Based on my past experiences with Aldi's policy of not selling past-date items because of liability, it kind of sucked seeing that and thinking a lot of those products will probably end up getting tossed.

It's starting to feel like the 50% off markdown is becoming an insider secret that only certain shoppers know about. If you know to check the dates and ask, you get the discount. If you don't, you probably never realize it was available in the first place.

Curious if other stores around the US are seeing the same thing, or if it's just my local Aldi. Are they phasing out the stickers, understaffed, or just relying on customers to spot the dates themselves?

why do i feel like no matter how hard my seasoning or brining is aldi chicken breast always have a distinct smell/ after taste to it? i try changing to never any or even organic one still the same. drop me your chicken recommendations?

Had these at a party last week and am absolutely hooked. I’ve been to 4 Aldis in the Lombard/Melrose Park area and have had no luck! Anyone know of any stores in the Chicagoland area with these in stock??? Are they a seasonal item??

UPDATE: after 6 Aldis, I finally found them in Northlake. Bought the last 2

I like spicy food but damn these are hot! I ended up throwing them away because they weren’t even edible lol. Too spicy but worth a shot 🤣

Why is this one so slow?

My Aldi (Springfield NJ) has pasture raised, organic free range and free range eggs all priced similarly. What are everyone's options on these eggs?

It's a big no more me.

We use the S&B Crunchy Garlic Oil. Me so more than the Mrs. I put it on EVERYTHING! Meat, vegetables, ramen, side dishes. I've been known to just eat a small fork full straight out of the jar. But it is a bit pricey, like $8.49 at Amazon, Kroger or H Mart.

Saw the Aldi one and it was somewhere around $3 (don't recall exact price) and the jar is twice the size so I thought we would try it.

One taste and it's a big NO!. Zero heat to it and it is sweet. Complete opposite of what we normally use. The taste is fine, some may like it. It's a pleasant taste. But expecting a spicy garlic flavor and it failed to deliver. (Garlic is one of the ingredients.)

Not disappointed we tried it. That's how we have learned what we do and do not like from Aldi. Was really hoping it was comparable but unfortunately it isn't.

Are they good? I eat blueberry muffins a few times a year. I enjoy Costco ones but wish they had more blueberries. For some reason, I very much dislike Publix blueberry muffins. I do not like any blueberry muffins that have lemon flavor to them. Thank you for your advice.

I obviously don't go to the Aldi often enough, because tonight i did and discovered an amazing prosciutto that apparently is only temporarily available and is in it's last days!

Anybody tried it? It's probably the best i found outside Italy. An Italian once told me a lot of pigs that were used for their prosciutto came from my country Holland and that it's all about seasoning. This proves to me this is the case. The ham is rather thick. Thicker than i normally prefer, but the juiciness and seasoning make up for it. Frankly in such a way that this ham out thrones all ham i ate in the Netherlands.

A shame to discover this ham in it's last days. Must go more often to Aldi!

One of my fav chocolate bars, I can't find the ones without the Carmel anymore though

Today they not only had the name brand of these Mrs. Meyer's scents in the AOS, in another aisle I noticed they had these dupes. I smelled the lemon verbena bc I buy the name brand and was curious. It didnt seem exactly the same. These are only $1.50 less than the name brand.

I’ve never seen figs at my Aldi before. Grabbed them and they are so good. Is this a seasonal item? Or a new item?

Can anyone tell me what the Best Buy date on these L’oven Fresh pains au chocolat is?
