    My favourite foodstuff - cake - is fast becoming prohibitively expensive! I snapped this up at 30% off the other day, cost around £1 with the discount.


    Mistake; it was ridiculously sweet, even for me. Needed dousing in cream to become palatable.

    Fortunately I don't have that problem @Rosa_Damascena because I don't eat cake.

    I buy DH Belgian buns in Aldi every week and he reckons they've shrunk over time. 🤔☹️

    I don't buy them as I would demolish them in seconds  :blush:

    I presume DH means the buns have shrunk and not his good self?

    @Brie, you're right, eating Belgian buns (amongst other goodies from Aldi) has meant he's definitely not shrunk. Quite the opposite. 😉

    I'm assuming they are quite good.  Not something I've tried and I won't be - just in case I do like them.  But I did run into a rather rotund acquaintance one day in Aldi and noted that in the time that he had been in there shopping he'd eaten 2 packs and had another 2 in his trolley.  I knew about the first 2 he'd consumed as he still had the packaging so he could pay for them with the others - he's greedy but honest!!

    Wow thats quite shocking, he couldn't get around the supermarket without needing to eat (four cakes?)

    One of the reasons I always go to supermarket after a meal!

    It's also theft.

    The person concerned may well have been intending to pay but up until the point he did pay, then it's theft.

    I really cannot understand how some individuals think that it's okay to do this.

    But this is off-topic, so I apologise.

    Lidl's bakery Belgian buns are really nice (when they have them in stock, at the moment that have some lemon version, nice but not belgian buns)
