Agreed. But what happened to the coffe/cream one? Haven't seen it for months. Facebook campaign?0 -
Shop there regularly. Here's the stuff that gets general approval round ours:
tortillas
dark German sunflower bread (try it toasted with peanut butter, egg salad or cheese)
tropical fruit juice with vitamins
cloudy Lemonade/pink Lemonade (when in stock)
sundried tomatoes in olive oil
Greek goodies (jarred beans, stuffed vine leaves etc.)
the better balsamic vinegar (short, roundish dark bottle)
whole pepper in a grinder bottle
smoked cheese (Rauchen kaas)
parmesan cheese
French camembert
butter--they often have Anchor for less than Tesco store brand
evaporated milk, .50p (I like it in my coffee)
canned chili--it's more American-style than Brit-style, my son likes it a lot
potato wedges
hashbrowns
ice cream, esp. the coffee and cream flavour they have sometimes
tortilla chips
Kettle chips-style potato crisps (59p/bag at one point)
Belgian chocolate
Black Forest ham
not so hot:
my cats turn up their noses at Lidl canned cat food
I find their veggies big, coarse and nasty, esp.compared to the cheap, lovely stuff at my neighbourhood Asian greengrocers
a lot of the packaged meat is the same water/chemical-injected rubbish the supermarkets sell. Cheaper, yeah, but YUCK. My son does like the frikadellen burgers, but if it's "meat," he'll eat it :rotfl:
unsure:
peach yogurt is quite an odd consistency and flavour, not sure if it's good or not yet
Their offer on fillet steaks (2 for £6.99) looks good. Not sure if this is Aldi or Lidl, but I'll be cooking them tomorrow:beer:0
