I LOVE Aldi's! Unfortunately the closest one to me is about 40 minutes away so I take my big cooler when I go (especially in the summer...with ice).
I stock up on pantry items like olive oil, olive oil spray, canola oil/butter spread, cereal, 5 lb. bags of rice, tuna packets, chips, crackers, berry preserves, steel cut oats, and cookies (of course, lol!)
We've learned what we like and don't like at Aldi's.
Likes: eggs, kcups (for keurig), chili beans, corn tortillas, refrigerated pizza, frozen pizza, frozen vegetables, frozen chicken cordon bleu, cheese slices, cheese sticks, some of their lunchmeats, bread, croissants, English muffins, and bagels. Most of the produce but I really look it over for spoilage signs before I buy it. I've had good luck with potatoes, onions, bananas, and avocados.
Dislikes: frozen hamburger patties (blech! had a weird taste!), frozen lasagna (like stouffers but tasted very bland!), frozen sausage patties, frozen breakfast sandwiches, and frozen waffles.
I've bought the 97% lean beef, pork chops, and steak before with no issues. I haven't bought chicken though. DH is super leary about any meat from there, but I don't have any issues with it (but he has a very sensitive stomach).
I heard that we may get a new Aldi's store in our area soon. I'm really hoping we do, I keep checking their website to see if they have any news.
