    oooohhhhhhhhhh i've not seen cherry ones!! ours just have orange and raspberry :-( sound delicious...........hehehe i eat the whole pack in one too :o

    The cherry ones are mixed up with the raspberry ones. They are in reddish box rather than a soft pinky one for raspberry ones.

    Very nice and yummy. And all mine as hubby hates cherries.

    If you get really stuck and are happy to PM your details can I will get some and send them out to you.

    Yours

    I wonder if Lidls will notice a surge in profits (largely due to jaffa cake sales) as a result of this thread?

    I agree with Sarah, have to make a trip to Lidls for Christmas stuff, the stollen, sweets, marzipan are lovely and really remind me of my childhood as we lived in Germany for a few years when I was little.
    Ahhh Happy memories!
    Our days are happier when we give people a bit of our heart rather than a piece of our mind.

    Not only is the stollen gorgeous, it's about half the price of Asda's.

    My trips to Lidl are few and far between ( I live in the sticks), however when I can get there my choice would be....

    Bread flour
    basmati rice
    the packets of rice +flavours ( mex rice...chicken rice etc)
    Cheese ...... it was scottish cheddar last time I was there
    tins toms
    tins kidney beans
    spices
    herbs
    balsamic vinegar
    extra virgin oil

    came across recipe with german sausage..so might venture to buy one of those next vist.
    Ma
    (must print of above list ready and add the jaffa rasp cakes!!

    I'm a Lidl regular too and get pretty much all of the stuff thats already been mentioned (the ice cream is definately THE best I've had and if you are going to eat burgers then make sure they are from Lidl - excellent!!)

    Also buy the following on a regular -ish basis ..
    - chorizio sausage
    - frozen lamb joints
    - Fruit juice (many varieties)
    - sparkling water
    - Alcohol (beer, gin and vodka normally!!)
    - hand wash (in a fancy red bottle)
    - cereal/snack bars
    - Lidls own shreddies
    - pro-biotic yogurt drinks
    - lovely mayonaise with herbs in (far too nice!)
    and pizzas, lots of them!!

    Go and have a look around, price up what you would normally buy and try a few new things that look interesting - continental food is generally very nice - I cannot think of anything I've bought from Lidl that has been unpleasant.

    I once bought the vodka with the red stuff in it.

    It was like paint stripper. I threw it away. And I noticed the price of there baileys knock off was £4.99 but in Asda it is £2.99.
