Happy with this morning’s haul. They didn’t have the pistachio spread in my store or the lemon gelato. If you are a lemon fan I HIGHLY recommend picking it up as it’s incredible!
That is a HAUL! My Lidl doesn’t seem to do the Italian ice cream any more which is a tragedy.

I also forgot to mention that Lidl now seems to have started doing the lime and coriander microwave rice packs! So those of you who struggle to find it in Aldi may now have luck in Lidl 🤞

I know this is stupid too but, how do you all eat the hazelnut spread? I can’t really imagine it on toast. Am I just spooning it straight in my mouth? 😂

Thanks for all the ideas 🥰 I just opened the jar and tried some. This is a serious danger food oh my god. I hope they have restocked the shelf in the morning…

Mr Pecan tried it too and now I need to hide it from him. Mine.

I couldn't see the pistachio one in my shop, so got the hazelnut one.
When I got home my husband told me I couldn't just stand there eating it with a spoon...he wasn't amused when I pointed out that if that was the case I'd just use my finger....

yeah I think you’ve been hoodwinked for the past 10 years - can’t shut them up in aldi. They must’ve had a secret shopper in and been scolded for being the least friendly branch - you’re going to have to pretend to like people if you want to carry on shopping there 😂
Aldi staff are so lovely, my dad has Parkinsons and has been going in to Aldi for years and all the staff chat to him.

He went in a few weeks back and hr had a new bank card and forgot to activate it so couldn't pay at the checkout, so he said he would go home and get cash and come back down and the lovely manager there wouldn't hear of it and told him to take his shopping on the house.

Dad went back anyway later with cash and they wouldn't accept it and told dad to donate it to a food bank if he wanted but that he didn't need to pay.

The security guy there also helps him put his shopping in the car.

Ok so I need to know if these have been discontinued? M&S do an equivalent but I refuse to pay nearly £4 there!
Both ALDIs closest to me don’t even have a space on the shelf for them anymore

These things quite literally are the bomb

What is the lemon sorbet which is supposedly divine?
Is is any of these?
We had that limoncello thing this afternoon and most of it went in the bin. It tasted so synthetic. I barely ate a third of mine and it’s been repeating on me all day! 😅 Reminded me of when I used to have to take liquid amoxicillin before going to the dentist as a kid. 🤢

I had the lemon profiteroles which tasted like UPF meh. My guest declined the other one. 😄
However, I had a lovely tea tonight - salad with lettuce, cucumber, kiwi fruit, celery, houmous and a baked potato with butter..........and Lidl's cheese coleslaw. Yum! 😋😋😋😋🥰🥰🥰🥰

Oh I liked amoxicillin 🤭
Someone mentioned a lush lemon dessert.. so not this then 🤣 Chances are its not in my store as this was all I could see.

THIS was divine but alas it's not been around for years. Is there anything similar?

It was your post...I just saw the lemon & knew it was a dessert so not a sorbet after all. I did get the coffee ice cream 😋
