    Pretty much all supermarket bread is UPF.

    I've drastically cut the amount of UPF I consume, realistically supermarket bread isn't something I'm going to exclude.

    Personally I love Aldi Malted Bloomer (pre packed), it is white based but something I can eat within the context of my white bread intolerance 👍🏻

    Lidl & Iceland also do a Malted Bloomer but the Aldi is my favourite 🍞

    Lidl fresh bakery ancient grain roll is another favourite. 
    Absolutely. We’ve ditched the lot and it all comes from the Panasonic breadmaker - huge range of types and ingredients. Including some rather good milk loaves. No more UPF bread!

    Did anyone on here used to buy Bellarom original coffee from Lidl (brown lid)?
    It seems they have stopped selling it, at least there has not been any in my local Lidl.
    I tried the Bellarom rich roast (red lid) which says on the jar it's the same strength but I'm using twice as much to get any flavour and the taste is not a patch on the original.

    I’ve just tried a tin of Lidl beef ravioli on toast honestly it was 100% tasteless.

    I have got back to hand baking bread and it tastes so much better than even premium supermarket bread, plus the fact that it is much more economical.

    It does show up how bad supermarket bread is. Far less salt, too, so a reduced risk of strokes and heart attacks.

    Does anyone know if two people can have the same Lidl account app on their separate mobiles?

    I know that the OH can give them my mobile number and points will be added to my account but he's also just discovered how to use apps so wanted to add the Lidl one - but not much point as it's only between the 2 of us we get sufficient points to get stuff.

    Yes & no - apparently the coupons should to be activated on the phone that's going to be scanned, "to be safe." As of course Lidl won't want the same bonus offer to be available on every phone the customer can lay their hands on.

    When my missis goes to Lidl she’s got a screen shot of my QR code and scans that it works ok.
