Great 'What's Hot and What's not at Aldi, Lidl & Netto' Hunt revisted

I bought Aldi's "Goldenfries" yesterday and they were the best oven fries I've ever come across. Beating anything.

Can anyone tell me if Lidl's washing powder is ok for eczema? My son gets it badly on his legs so I have bought nothing but Fairy non-bio for a long time. Do they actually have a non-bio one in Lidl?

My daughter had severe eczema as a baby and I found the only powder she didn't react to was Lidl although I eventually went on to their liquid as well.
She is now 15 yrs old and I still use it and she is still eczema free.
She reacted badly to Fairy.

Sounds like you should try the Specially Selected Chips then!

You obviously didn't live in the UK then as Lidl has not been here for 15 years

Since establishing ourselves in the UK in 1994, we have grown consistently and today have more than 380 stores, and there are plenty more to come....

Thank you very much susiejq I will definitely give the Lidl soap powder a try, I have no idea if Fairy is doing any good I just know things were worse when I used Ariel Although saying that, the eczema is probably just not as bad as it was when he was small. :j

Maybe I should, with the Currywurst. Fry the bratwurst, cut into slices. For the curry sauce, heat ketchup in a saucepan and add curry powder (lushly). Pour that sauce over the bratwurst, serve with chips. The currywurst I made on Saturday was bang on, better than what you'd get at the typical German fries places.

It's also nice to dutch the chips up, "frietjes speciaal", with mayo and chopped onions.
Best of all worlds. But probably an acquired taste for the British palate. The little one liked it, though.

ALDI

I can recommend their Frozen Chargrilled Mediterranean Veg. £1.49 for 750g

Made a lovely frittata with eggs milk & parmesan cheese - simple!

Price slash alert! The Parmesan at Lidl is now only £2.79. They were the cheapest before but that's a brilliant price now!
