Aldi... what do you recommend?

I find this the best mash. Add your own butter, seasoning or whatever. Its plain, nothing added. And good value. I can get 4 single portions out of it for 2 euro.

Look, proper mash should be just enough potatoes to carry all the cream and butter. If you have floury enough potatoes you may get the magical 1:1:1 ratio.

Anything else is just spuds.

Be sure to have good medical insurance if having this regularly!!!, exercise is not enough.

Back on topic, the tubes of garlic, chilli, ginger, lemongrass etc. are just the ticket to supercharge stir fry or quick curry.

Garlic you say 😋

Specially selected mediterranean pita breads - found them in the bread section. Not on their homepage, made in greece. Wonderful. Halved them,stuffed them, on the Foreman great stuff.

Am big fan of fresh mash from fridge section. Always microwave, I remove cellophane top and put own microwave lid on. Stop half way and fork over a bit then at end a good bit of butter. If only one portion you can do half amount adjusting times a bit. Also use this to top a cottage pie when can go in oven with a bit of cheese on top to brown.

I've never spotted it. How much?

I didn't even look at the time 😆🙈

But I checked online just now & she ain't cheap 😬..but definitely worth it. I felt like it was gifted straight from the Willy Wonka factory

Those are the ones I always get. They're usually slightly more expensive but on offer to €2.99 a lot. They usually have a long shelf life on them too.

We usually get 2 and use the middle of both, stuff and roll together with some fatty or streaky bacon and tie it up for a roast. There's usually a bit leftover for a few sandwiches too after feeding 2 adults and 2 teens. I use the top and bottom then for a pork stirfy after trimming the fat for the dog.

Cooked properly, it's probably my 2nd favourite cut of any meat after a juicy rib eye.

I worked for a producer to customers like Aldi and other supermarkets for 9 years. Once the initial spec is approved, one of the ways that quality is continually monitored is by the consumer complaints system.

The complaints and their corrective actions are shared between the customer and the producer and are very much in focus.

At the producer there are daily panels that sample product and packaging internally to catch non conformances, and occasional customer audits looking at the whole process.

But it's very beneficial for consumers to complain through the right channels to maintain product standards.

Look on the pack to contact the producer's customer service, or to the supermarket customer service. To the supermarket often carries more weight as they will expect an answer quickly from the producer.

My last complaint was to direct to Yorkshire Tea via email. They were very helpful.

either 4.49 or 4.99 I forget. Saw them yesterday. Just too expensive for me tho.

It is very expensive for a chocolate bar. I didn't even look at the price in store and only found out how much i.paid when I later checked online 🥴.

Tbh, it really was very very tasty so it was worth it.. But I don't think I'd pay it again.

(Although, I said the same about the Dubai chocolate bars aswel. Too expensive but I loved them & did end up buying them a couple of time again 💸😅)
