We have several Aldi's close by and they are disgusting - very dirty, worse than Walmart, never stocked, clean, or organized. I hate that they are set up like a maze - you can only walk one way throughout the store and can not grab one item and go to register, due to how the aisles are. They recently built a new one down the road and I went to see what it was like because it was supposed to be their fancy new town and country design - and I will say it looks nice, is much larger, so far is organized & stocked, but aside from that, the things I bought (again) were just not worth it. Spices seems stale (I prefer Penzey's!), baked goods bland and didn't taste fresh despite looking good, produce turning, etc. The Indian sauce I tried tasted good but was full of excessive salt, sugar, chemicals-my bad for not reading the label. That said their garbage bags were fine, in the past I've purchased a patio umbrella and at least 6 large outdoor planters and they have held up very well. Their eggs and frozen foods were disgusting and off tasting and the few plants I purchased died much sooner than others purchased elsewhere.
*I do give them huge props though for adding a Vegan page & guide on their website. If you click on the guide it lists the barcodes, name, and size of every Vegan product in their store! Since going WFPB, I find this very cool and hope more stores would do the same!*
