The Wagyu burgers and the venison grillsteaks on offer in Aldi this week are both excellent. Had them this evening.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again...

Aldi does frozen mash for about 3 months every year, no idea why its so seasonal but its very good when you want a quick meal because you are tired.0 -
The Aldi 'crunch' cereal is amazing and super cheap. Chocolate or Maple/ Pecan... yummmmy0

That's right and it's not like Alpen.
minimad1970 - I know what you mean about the Alpen sweetness. You could add demerara sugar for the sweetness.
It's really nice with Greek style yoghurt (Lidl have put their 4 packs up 10p to £1.09!!). Top the yoghurt with the muesli and then top it all with honey (and or demerara sugar) - a nice breakfast or dessert.
But it is full of whole / large nuts and pieces (as well as fruit).

I like the M&S one....or rather I did before I stopped eating carbs. Since then, I buy it on offer and use purely for baking purposes.Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!
