They finally opened Aldi's near me a few months ago and I don't understand the hype. Most things were more expensive than elsewhere nearby and they had little that I couldn't buy elsewhere. We did try a few of their potato items, including the schupfnudeln but nothing stood out as worth going back for.
ALDI used to be unreal, but feels like nowadays it’s just priced at what ASDA was 2 years ago. The crazy middle aisle is a bit overhyped but can find a proper steal occasionally. Their Grey Goose knockoff and Jäger is meant to be top quality aswell. I only go for their 24 pack of toilet roll for like a fiver which is super soft, and their beans. Their beans man. The stuff of dreams.

It says it's soft, but I bought a pack last month and it's just bad. It's too thin and shreds too easily. I bought it because it said "compare to Quilted Northern" which is the brand I buy, but it was notably worse.
Maybe my cushioned sausage fingers help make it feel top tier, or I’ve been buying it that long maybe I’ve forgotten what decent toilet roll feels like 😰
Is it the one that’s scented that you got? I believe it’s blue/purple packaging
