Talking of all things Veganuary which seems to be everywhere, I noticed Frickles in Aldi's new vegan offerings.
As discussed previously on here I can't seem to find them, so presume they're not in my store or they're permanently sold out!
I've looked in all four Aldi stores near me - two had shelf tags but no product. I'm really keen to try them! Aldi's vegan range always looks so exciting, but they're quite soy-heavy and I don't tend to love the taste of soy-based meat subs, so I was extra excited by the frickles.

I've not seen them in any of my local Aldis. Normally they're all well stocked with their plant based stuff but they've all been pretty empty recently. Wondering if maybe it was supply issues 🤷‍♀️

I've noticed with a lot of thr vegan range, there's two types of thing in a box. In this case frickles and some battered tofu.. that nobody bloody wants. (See the same problem with the lime rice in the last thread). They won't get another box out until the other stock is going down... we need someone to buy all the tofu so they bring the frickles out!

The tofu is awesome. I stock up whenever I see it!

3 Aldi’s no Frickles. Attempting again tomorrow.

The new Deluxe chiller Mac n Cheese with Pancetta in Lidl is delicious.

I don't think the tofu is in with the frickles - there's 3 types of tofu in my 2 nearest Aldi - hot and spicy, southern fried and battered. It's only ever the hot and spicy that's left here. I love the battered one and the southern fried is pleasant enough too.

I got the only box of frickles my store had after searching on three separate trips! They’re really nice. They were mixed in with some other tempura veg, and shared a shelf label. I’ve not seen them since, it’s just piles of the veg.

I bought a small battery operated sander from aldi... It doesn't come with the battery, which it does say on the box, Gah! But when I went back to aldi, they don't sell the battery pack. Wtf. Went into wickes, got a plug in one. Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Mine came with a battery but not sure if it’s a lidl one as I’ve had it since then first lockdown. The battery doesn’t last long at all though.

Yes! That's what it is... just something else that I wouldn't eat. @Jellycat369 Can you buy all the tempura veg too? 😂

Was in the middle of the frickle chat and was like it came with a battery? That's a new kind of frickle 😂

Not a fan of the tempura veg so I'm going to pass on that 🤪

Can report there were no frickles in Aldi today. Vemondo chilled stuff 20% off in Lidl though.
