    Yes they do, they are kept on a shelf above the freezer section next to the sauce bottles.

    As for a taste comparison, I can't remember what Bisto tastes like, I have been using either Aldi or Lidl granules for so long :)

    I bought the Aldi version just in case I ran out of Bisto, I much prefer it to Bisto now. I don't know how the sodium compares to Bisto but to me it doesn't taste as salty.

    ETA: I don't think I've ever seen a chicken gravy at my Aldi. Although, the shelves are permanently half empty!

    Always used Bisto but tried Aldi gravy granules and didn't notice much difference, so use Aldi now.
  • I always use them too, I find they dissolve much better than Bisto as well as tasting the same.
