Good. Though I wouldn't overestimate their "healthy" status - they are prepared in the same way as Potato Oven Fries - with a coating of fat and added flavourings.

Sweet potatoe fries are good.
Alcafe Nespresso compatible capsules are good as well.

Aldi have some frozen Rainbow trout at the moment.

I defrosted mine and dusted them in seasoned flour before frying in butter.

Really nice subtle flavours. Recommended.

I've always assumed that shops, to avoid mistakes, had some sort of automated printer to print shelf edge price labels. Clearly that's not the case at Aldi:
