I did not know this and am a crisp FIEND.

Bit worried my Lidl doesn’t have these as I’ve never seen them, but I travel a lot for work so often pass a random one.

I love how we are all such enablers 😂

I wish you well on your quest ….

I'm loving the positivity of those who won't just use a spoon and demolish the entire jar 🤣🤣🤣

I've troughed a whole pack of Aldi's shortbread. It was delicious 😋. It had the longest sell by date but the least ingredients, so I'm scratching my head on how it would last till October 2025!
It was in oblong black packaging. Sorry that's all I can remember.😳🤭
Further confession - it was meant to be for guests coming today. Luckily they've cancelled. 😏

Branding all the French stuff in Lidl with Emily in Paris feels like a hate crime :LOL:

I do hope they choose some UK Netflix show for the British brand. I'd go with Claire Foy as a young Elizabeth on all the chutney and Cheddar.

I'm genuinely flabbergasted by hearing about your Lidls that play music 😅 I could swear I've never been to one that does, in the UK or abroad. Unless I'm that far removed from reality that I didn't notice 🤣

I will! Head office has replied to my question saying have you stopped selling this lovely choc by 'thanking me for my product suggestion'.

Lidl, you are testing my love for you rn.

This was classed as a basket and rang up at just £2.50 in lidl. I'm going to fill it with chocs and have it on the coffee table 😍.

I can’t cope with the Christmas ranges already being available like what is to stop me from buying things “for Christmas” and just eating them now. Please help. I’m guessing that’s why they stock it early so you’ll eat and rebuy but it’s just annoying when you’re trying to be in your healthy girl era 😂😂

I don't know what Lidl have done to their chocolate digestives but they've gone from being better than McVities to inedible. It's been a while since I last bought them so not entirely sure when they changed, but I had a bad feeling as soon as I saw the packaging was different. They're now like chewing a lump of concrete - rock solid and tasteless.

I know it's such a small life problem, but I'm so sick of everything continually getting shitter.

I feel like this about Lidl. I used to love their copy of Fruit & Fibre cereal as it had much more dried fruits etc in it than the Kellogg’s one. I bought some the other day and it’s basically a box of Bran Flakes with about two raisins in it.

I used to go to Lidl largely as a foodie, because they had so much good stuff. But they’ve stopped selling my fave Madagascan dark chocolate, the cereal’s shit, and it all just feels really crap now.

I still go for basics because price wise it is much better than the rest. But it’s not the fun treasure trove of delicious good quality stuff it was a couple of years ago.

Whoever invented the double chocolate pain au chocolat is an utter bastard. I don't need to know these exist, never mind be able to buy. Ffs 🤬
