I got this range from Aldi that I liked:

but I've been told this cheaper range is still 5/5:

Will have to investigate next time I'm in the store. 🤔

Have Aldi stopped selling the cookie dough bites? I can't find them and now they don't even seem to have the other two that are sold from the same box (rocky road and can't remember the other)

Lidl has some interesting bits in for Christmas. I was the epitome of restraint. (Except for the box of pistachio chocolates. I'm still only flesh and blood, after all).

Got some garlic crisps and their, probable, Halloween version of Monster Munch. That and the rosé should make for a good Saturday night 😅

Are they the ball pistachio chocolates that look like lindor balls? If so I got those too! Have you tried them?

Yes in he fridge section there is a lovely paneer 1. That dressing able alternative looks really lovely
I have just had that for lunch with a little rice and a nan - looked on the label after I had eaten it and there was 1100 calories in the curry. :cry: The prawn one has less than 500 and chicken vindaloo just over 400. I am supposed to be losing weight before my hols.:D
Lots of nice Chrismassy chocs and cakes in there this afternoon but did resist those.

Finally managed to find a bilash paneer curry in Aldi this morning only to check the ingredients and find honey, which I’m allergic to. Absolutely gutted, I was really looking forward to trying it.

Maybe? They were £2.99, I think, but haven't tried them yet.

For any Londoners who are after the wooden toys, Shepherds Bush branch had loads when I was there earlier.

Everything I've read online says that the pistachio balls taste like vomit! Hope to be proven wrong by this thread so I can run to Lidl to get some 🤞

Picked up a Hot butter chicken, lamb rogan Josh, chicken tikka masala, onion bhajis, chicken pakoras and lamb samosas. Had all those last time I think!
Also grabbed a chilli paneer, to give it a go.

Already looking forward to dinner tomorrow.
please report back on the butter chicken and lamb! I very nearly picked those up last time and am tempted to do another curry run tomorrow…

I have had most of them and never been disappointed with any of them. I get quite excited when I see Bilash week is here. Today I saw chicken vindaloo (new) that can be frozen which wasn't there last week so it has gone in the freezer for when I come back from holiday in 2 weeks.
I did look at the fridge Bilash Curries but they don't appeal to me as they are with white rice which I don't eat - such a pity.

They absolutely do taste like sick. Like Hershey vomit chocolate. Rank. That’s the first thing I said when I gave them away. 😂

See, I didn't think to look at the ingredients whilst buying them because there are so few people in Europe and the UK who even like Hershey "chocolate" so why would Lidl have done that? It doesn't make sense.

These are them for those who want to avoid them. Stay safe, y'all.
