Lidl's caramelized onion humus is much nicer than Tesco's

Lidl do a 10Kg bag of Basmati rice for £7.49 that's less than 75p per kilo, when they have it, a 1Kg bag at £1.15 that's a 40p saving on a 1Kg bag.

Yes a big saving if you are a big rice user but at 100g once a week, I doubt if I could store the left over rice safely for long enough to use it all.

Thumbs up for the Lidl Deluxe Salted Caramel and Chocolate roulade. At last a dessert which actually feeds the number it supposed to serve without looking like stick insect portions. Lovely

Bought a joint of beef (think it’s silverside) with a £2 sticker and full price it was c. £10.85 and weight 1.5kg.

Not sure where you bought it but I'm very pleased with Aldi beef but joints.

My local Lidl has had a refit so I now have to re-learn where everything is, I came away this morning with only half my list ticked.

Agree on the beef joints they are very good, the rib eye steaks are excellent too. Really good value for money

Lidl own-brand chocolate digestives are very nice and similar to the McVities ones; Lidl put them next to each other of course; theirs is 45p compared to £1.35 as I recall. Taste the same however the Lidl ones hold up a bit better if dunking in coffee apparently.
