Aldi's £1.49 Caramel & Sea Salt Chocolate is really lovely, that's new-ish. Moser Roth Organic Peruvian Caramel & Sea Salt Milk Chocolate 100g

Their Monster Munch knockoffs (Snackrite Monster Claws) were so bad, they're probably the first crisps I've ever chucked in the bin o_O

Storck Knoppers NutBars are good too, think only Aldi sell those in the UK at the moment - did a post about them on HUKD.
Will have to look out for Mighty Peas - save it from extinction :LOL: I actually prefer Lidl to Aldi for many things but my local stores are a bit too far away.

My posts are hardly making me sound like a foodie :ROFLMAO:

Edit: Oh, here's another one I just thought of and I think it's a Rowntree's knockoff. Gianni Watermelon Lollies 99p for 3 (gorgeous, just had one in the sun).

(I wish they'd done a Matcha ice cream
Same or a green tea.

But I did manage to get the last chocolate mochi, I wanted mango but beggers and all that.

Hopefully they'll do a lemon sorbet in a lemon soon, and we now know to go the day before!

I just had a mango mochi from Lidl…didn’t like it as much as the aldi ones. Going to try the coconut next - you know, for research purposes only 🤪

I'm in Scotland so I don't know if that makes a difference to when they put the new stuff out?

I was in at about 1pm today and the mochis were in the freezer, but only a handful of boxes left - hopefully they restock yours soon! I don't know what all the flavours are, but given the amount of rummaging I had to wait behind to get a box, I'm assuming there is a superior one 😂
I'm in Scotland too and I went just now. They had a label for mochi but nothing in the freezer and something else was in that space. But they did have all the other stuff, I got a few things-kimchi, gyozas, some ramen kits etc.

Oh, Jesus - don’t about the seeds. All perfect until the coriander got weird - a horrible orange pestybug grew and killed the much loved other herbs - traumatising to say the least.


Imagine the increase of requests re Mighty Peas 😉
I'm pages behind but wanted to say that I went to Aldi and they had salted caramel moser Roth chocolate! Yay! Tucking in now....😁
I was also influenced to buy the rolled up pizza base!
Forgot the bloody Mighty Peas and there were no Pineapple Serums left.
I did get some bedding plants last week...cheap and look good.

Green tea would be lush, as would the lemon sorbet in a lemon! I always eye the tubs of sorbet in Aldi but I've had a half finished co-op sorbet in my freezer for months so can't justify it unless its a special release like the coconuts, aha.

How were the chocolate mochi? I'm after the mango as well but are they worth going to Lidl for?

Git some darling little violas in Lidl and though cheap they have really flourished.

I ran down to my local Lidl there (because the fear of missing out on mochi was far too much too great). No mochi. Two people came to look for it at the same time as me. ☹

Aye, I'm just back from the Lidl near me in Scotland - partly out of hope, mainly because I was out of milk and sugar 😅 They had literally everything in the range out except the mochi (and no sign for it up either). Got the coconut ice cream to try at least.

Debating going back tomorrow afternoon to see if the mochi (and their Old Mout Cider knock-off) be in stock by then. Probably won't even bloody like it after all this 😂

I’m not gonna lie Lidl is not my cup of tea but I might just make a trip to get some of those coconut ice creams 🤣.

My sister buys this quite regularly from Lidl, the Grey Goose-alike Ignis French Grain Vodka/700cl, £14.99. It's won a few awards, such as The Grocer Drink Awards 2017 and IWSC Silver 2017.

Another decent but cheap (ish) vodka is Costco's Kirkland Signature French Grain (don't buy the American one) - sometimes goes down to around £35 on offer for 1.75L.
I meant 70cl, can't edit now!

I've compiled a few HUKD posts about the Lidl perfume-alikes, though I wonder if they're no longer stocking Essence (the Female scents were originally called Aura) as some newer fragrances are in Lidl now. Everyone knows about Suddenly Madame Glamour (probably - if not, it's Lidl's Chanel Coco Mademoiselle dupe) - Lidl even sell a Doussy Fabric Conditioner of this fragrance - in the last link I pasted.

Lidl's offerings are much better than the Aldi scent dupes I've tried.
