Aldi has some amazinggggg choclate and im not talking about snickers or knock off from popular US brands. They have chocolate from all over the world mostly europe and they are very rich and tasty, brands i never heard of
sorry I've tried a few of the Aldi chocolate and while good (better than Lindt IMO) they don't hold a candle to El Rey or even Velarhona I never liked Nutella.. 'hazelnut' spread? there's barely any hazelnuts in it.
Those so called off-brand products are typically made by the same manufacturers as the premium brands. It's the secret of success for ALDI. Manufacturers can max their production capacities (with slightly changed recipes) and sell their products for lower prices under another name without damaging their original brand's recognition.
redviperhh Even better! Means you can probably get that brand name craving out the way AND save alot of cash. I heard this a long time ago so I am always trying to get my fam to go there.✌😀
My husband is a truck driver. Been trucking for 30 years. He's told me of so many times he picks up name brands at one end of the company and off brand at the other end. Same thing! Even with dog food. Lots of food products are sold this way. You are paying for the label, labor costs, and greedy companies. Aldi's has so many ways to cut down on costs and passes the savings on to consumers. With food costs so high, I see a great future for Aldi's. Go Aldi's!
I have an Aldi 5 minutes down the street and I am in there 2-3 times a week so I guess I'm an Aldi FREAK! Where are you? I'm in Norman, OK. Y'all sound southern too!
Aldis kicks butt! At my local Aldis milk is $1.00 a gallon, bread is 79 cents and eggs are 43 cents a dozen. And they taste awesome. If you have a Aldis and don’t shop there you’re just throwing money away.
Been shopping at Aldi's for 30 years. They have improved soooooo much. I buy just 1 of a product to see if I like it. Love that they have so many organic products now. Can foods have organic choices also. The produce is really good. I buy the jasmine rice in 5 lbs.bag. It says that it comes from Thailand. With all the plastic rice being sold,mostly from China I would like to know if I can trust this rice. I save so much on groceries at Aldi's store. It's my favorite store. I live on 840.00 a month disability so every dollar counts. I see the prices at Walmart and other stores. Can't touch that. If you don't shop at Aldi's, you are throwing money away.
@@Ollie7707 ..i am also curious where he/she lives. Im in wv aldi milk is 2.20, eggs 79c...and im pleased to get that deal..id love to only pay 1 doll for gallon of milk...but not worth living in an area where you cant find a job, or might get shot going to aldi..lol
Those Aldi “cheese-it’s” are REALLY good. The unfair difference between the nachos is the MSG in Doritos. This is a great review, I appreciate y’all for sharing.
Gaming Palooza Empire if you eat wheat corn dairy anything conventional meat....that's not organic. You are ingesting GMO. All corn soy wheat and conventional animal feed is GMO.
Yo Doe THIS, people don’t realize what the ANIMALS ARE FED, IS IMPORTANT to distinguish if it is GMO free/Organic or not. Too many products are labeled GMO free for the product not “containing it”, but yet, are being fed it.
Doritos connoisseur! LOL I just started going to Aldi a few months ago, I do not buy a whole lot of packaged foods there mostly produce but I love their SimplyNature White Cheddar Cheese Puffs, so yummy!! Great video! Kudos!
Aldi's is the bomb!!! Good products for half the price, i can spend $200 for a month, verses $400 at shoprite or any other store!! Im sticking to aldi like who doesn't wanna save money!!!???
My kids hands down prefer the Aldi's Cheezits. They don't even want me to buy the other if I am heading to another store. They would rather wait for their favorite. Now I must admit that Aldi's did not do as good on their "Weaved wheat crackers". Aka Triscuts.
My husband hauled for Aldi their products are made by name brand just packaged in a different label... If u read some of the labels u will find who made them then research and find a name brand owns it
I buy 98% of my groceries at Aldi. The only two things I can’t get behind are their cereals and their soups. Everything else is either the same or better than the national brands, and I save so much money. Great video!
Me and the wife love this store. But the Doritos aren’t even close. I was totally disappointed with them. I still have a full bag left and I really tried. But that aside I have to say they’re great on everything else.
mpmarvin999 ....I totally understand your comment since you added the fact that Aldi is an overall great value store. But never underestimate that many times people will think differently if a food product is very expensive but doesn't taste "great". Rich people often times then just say "its an acquired taste that takes getting used to". Too funny! And guess how outrageous the profit margins are on these products! "Can you please pass the Grey Poupon".....your dam right I'll pass on that. Gotta love sales and marketing....easy money!
i would definitely like to see more of these videos. have you ever heard of the grocery store called save-a-lot? we have one here and i thought it might be like aldi.
Yes, I have been to Save a Lot. It's not quite like Aldi. Aldi is just so unique in my opinion because of their small selection and mostly only selling their off brand. Amazing prices!
meg simmons yeah save a lot is nothing like Aldi. Only in the way they have their food on the floor. Also as someone said the contain the more popular brands. Whereas Aldi carries their own awesome brands made in the same facility im sure.
I used to shop at Save-a-lot then Aldi moved in and Save-a-lot went out of business a couple of years later. I guess that would be the result if one is selling their bananas for 29 cents a pound.
The real difference is that aldi isnt chock full of chemicals and sugars and preservatives... and the American brands are basically nothing but chemicals... and we are so use to eating all of those chemicals that when we eat things without the chemicals we can taste the lack of them... we have been conditioned to enjoy the chemicals... it's truly sad that the FDA let's the food companies get away with so much... 😥
It'd be cool to do like a battle of all the store brands - like Dollar General, Dollar Tree, Aldi, Walmart, Kroger, etc... like the choc dipped granola bars, etc.
kevseb66 .....Then why does over 90% of the public shop everywhere else (if they have an Aldi's within driving distance of 3 miles and they own a car)....Answer....nobrains
That was absolutely so enjoyable, adorable couple. I initially started taking my elderly mother to Aldi (to save her money) to do her groceries. At first I was so silly and stuck up and thought oh no I am not buying anything here. But as time went by, I too now enjoy sooooooooooo many items from Aldi, its cheaper, but the quality in most items is very very good and sometimes nicer than the name brands. I thoroughly recommend Aldi to people, give it a go and at the same time save money! So many of us have hang-ups because if its cheaper it must be inferior, but tbh its best to not think that way and give things a go.
Two or three thumbs up guys! Nice video giving true and honest opinions and I like that. More of these would be really fun to watch. And yes Krispy Kreme IS the very best in the world!!
I just saw two videos on Aldi. I also read over 300 comments. I was the only person to mention blind taste tests.....no exaggeration. Now I came across this title. I haven't even watched it yet and already know what it will talk about.....Aldi offers very good quality food. I have done years of research on sales, psychology, business and more. If you don't learn how to think for yourself, sales and marketing experts will do it for you. (No....an opinion is not enough either)
“I go by color”....totally my husband, lol. When he makes me coffee he puts it in a specific cup, because the color painted around the rim is exactly the color I like my coffee.
I love Aldis, when it first came to our area about 12 years ago I refused to go there. The atmosphere was so bizarre to me lol. I used to think dear God what the heck are in those products that they can sell them at such a low cost. I kept hearing you have to go to Aldis , you have to just try it, OMG I can't believe you won't even go in to the store. Lol I finally did give in but it took me 2 years b4 I made the leap. I can't tell you what a dumbass I was for putting it off for so damn long. I laugh because in my mind I thought though I am NOT wealthy, I was concerned that if I ran into someone that may know me would think, awww she must be low on funds and can't shop at the Huge Giant Eagle directly across the street. Now I laugh bcz I was an idiot for caring and also bcz the "Rich" people are the ones pulling up in there Cadillacs and Lincolns all shopping at Aldis. I am a HUGE fan of Aldis and tell others who say the same idiotic things I used to say just how great this place is.I can tell you one thing I have done the taste test on "Spagettios " name brand "Beefaroni" name Brand as opposed to the Aldis and hands down ALDIS was the winner bcz the name brands had a watery consistency and it was more like soup, the Aldis brand was more like a pasta. It's a great place for a family with growing kids!!
Lisa Disso. Thank you. . I think I didn't go because they didn't have brand names but I'm going to make it to the store up the street. I'm happy I saw this video and your comments.
I was the same way! The first time I walked in I felt like I was in the twilight zone! The clientele was a little rough and I felt like I was slumming. Now I don’t care who sees me. The other day I ran into my doctor! Lol😂
I love Aldi, so I thoroughly enjoyed this tasting. I personally have found I like Aldi brand on any product I have tried with the exception of the mini wheats cereal. I like the Aldi well enough that the difference in price would be my purchasing choice. If you haven't tried the mandarin oranges in the can they are superb. The little segments are so plump, no stragley bits in the can, not overly sweet....as you can see I think they are the best. All the fruit and veggies I have tried I would use over name brand also the frozen vegetables are just as great. I was a loyal Kroger brand customer but I have switched to Aldis. Thank you for sharing this and I just subscribed to your channel. Y'all have a Blessed day.
Love your vid! ❤️ We live in a very small town with basically nowhere to shop however we do have an ALDI which I love. I don't care for the knockoff Doritos but I love the potato chips! Sooo much cheaper! They also have a great assortment of cheeses. I use all of their soups & canned goods too!
We like the knockoff cookies and crackers from Aldi. I go there often. The granola bars and poptarts are really good. You hubby is such a great sport for doing this! :) Maybe do a video on juices and other drinks from there.
@CHILIDOUG, I bought the Clancy brand corn chips last week and I like them better than Fritos. Clancy was not as salty. I know Fritos has a less salty chip but not all stores carry them. Plus Aldi's Clancy brand was less expensive.
Marla Bullard ....So many people like you and I save money (up to 50% off!) by simply having an open mind. It truly amazes me how blind taste tests keep proving peoples "taste buds" can be tricked by a popular brand names. That's why its called "blind" taste test comparison! Wine is a perfect example due to the huge amount of money a person will waste. Taste tests have proved people will choose a $5 dollar bottle of wine over a $30 fancy label brand. That a 600% savings difference! Just imagine this savings over a ten year period for disposable income slaves to image marketing strategies.
New Subscriber. Loved this video. I used to do taste test for a living for 12 years. I wasn't the one eating but giving the test I enjoyed watching you. I LOVE Aldi. don't do my entire shopping there but a lot of stuff. It does save money.
Planning some of those! Thanks for watching! We do have more Aldi ones: th-cam.com/video/_8T5wwm05Jg/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/118Q_VPjHZs/w-d-xo.html
I surely enjoyed this video! I'll have to try this with my husband! He's pretty picky about his food! I think he'll be totally surprised by his choices!! Thanks for this great video! Would like to see more of comparing brand name foods to Aldi or other stores brands!
In my recent visit to the US (transit stop in Charlotte) I noticed quite a lot of differences between different grocery store "culture" in the EU (especially German and Dutch stores) and stores in the US. Here in Germany there is only a small number of very large shops (e.g. Walmart got bullied out of competition here about ten years ago), a decent amount of rather expensive super markets and a whole lot of ALDI like shops (ALDI north and south, LIDL and some others). Most German stores offer a decent variety of "original" and store-owned cheaper food brands, so everybody has the option to choose. Another interesting thing I've noticed is that food is generally cheaper in Germany while sodas/pops/softdrinks or whatever you wanna call those sugary drinks are (a lot) cheaper in the US and come in larger bottles aswell (the maximum size for Coke here is 2l e.g. but usually they sell it in sizes of 1 or 1,5l).
Don't use the Aldi Brand for A-1 Sauce; we did not care for it at all. Had a weird taste. I usually love all of Aldi's products, but NOT that one. I splurge for brand name brand A-1 sauce.
Loved the taste tests. Please do more. Although, after the granola bar taste-test, I can't believe your husband brushed the crumbs from the table onto the floor.
Thank you for doing these videos. I was raised that brand name is what you buy and that knock offs are never as good or of as good quality. I get produce, cheese and eggs from Aldi, but haven't been brave enough to try other things
We use the Aldi nachos for taco salads. I think anything where the chip is not the focus they are perfectly swappable. My daughter is growing up on them and likes them fine.
I hope when I meet my husband, we have fun like this. Lol so cute.
Don't settle for any guy that you can't have fun and laugh with! It's the best!
kyasmeen if not when
kyasmeen. He's a sweetheart. I like this couple ...best wishes in meeting your true love.
Im here i know it was 2 years ago but better late than never lol
Their version of Girl Scout cookies are so good and taste exactly the same and they've only like $1.50
Agree!
We actually have a video on this: th-cam.com/video/118Q_VPjHZs/w-d-xo.html
Aldi has some amazinggggg choclate and im not talking about snickers or knock off from popular US brands. They have chocolate from all over the world mostly europe and they are very rich and tasty, brands i never heard of
YES!!!!! I so agree! Their chocolate is the best ever!
Yes, once I went to Europe I can no longer eat US chocolate. Its just gross and oily.
Their hazelnut spread is better than nutella, too. I stopped buying it after i tried that one. Goodbye separated oils!
sorry I've tried a few of the Aldi chocolate and while good (better than Lindt IMO) they don't hold a candle to El Rey or even Velarhona
I never liked Nutella.. 'hazelnut' spread? there's barely any hazelnuts in it.
macmacox Sure, a 3$ chocolate isn't going to taste premium, but when the alternative is Hershey's, i'll take it. I prefer Choceur to Lindt too.
Those so called off-brand products are typically made by the same manufacturers as the premium brands. It's the secret of success for ALDI. Manufacturers can max their production capacities (with slightly changed recipes) and sell their products for lower prices under another name without damaging their original brand's recognition.
redviperhh I believe you. Their version of Ruffles sour cream and cheddar chips is eerily just like the original.
They use the same factory's and machines, the only difference is the packaging
They probably save tons of money by leaving out the MSG!
redviperhh i love it!!!!!!
redviperhh Even better! Means you can probably get that brand name craving out the way AND save alot of cash. I heard this a long time ago so I am always trying to get my fam to go there.✌😀
Aldi quality is very high. Most people don't realize it. The name brands aren't worth the difference
Agree...most things are very close to name brand!
Andre Abreu I personally have always been disappointed in Aldi subs. I’d rather pay more.
You need to do this with Great Value Products from Walmart vs Aldi. I love Aldi Off Brand Products.
We can do that! :)
Be Careful when you do. Example, Can Chicken Dumplings. The Great value Brand my dog would not even eat.
Oh yuck. Good to know...skipping that one!
Please do that ! I would love to see that Blessed jess
hey girl! absolutely love this! do more of these videos if you can. Love me some Aldi!
Hey girl! Missed ya! Will do! :)

LOVE it!
Aldi's over here in New York occasional sells jarred peaches with cinnamon or vanilla that are really good.
That sounds good!
Have you tried the flavored applesauce? The peach is SOOOO good!
Yes! They are seasonal! So good.
I have an Aldi 5 minutes down the street and I am in there 2-3 times a week so I guess I'm an Aldi FREAK! Where are you? I'm in Norman, OK. Y'all sound southern too!
Haha. Yes, we are near Atlanta, Georgia! We love Aldi!
Aldis kicks butt! At my local Aldis milk is $1.00 a gallon, bread is 79 cents and eggs are 43 cents a dozen. And they taste awesome. If you have a Aldis and don’t shop there you’re just throwing money away.
Totally agree!

43 cent/dozen eggs?? Where are you from?! They are between 99 cents and 1.30 for a dozen at Aldi around here
@@Ollie7707 ..i am also curious where he/she lives. Im in wv aldi milk is 2.20, eggs 79c...and im pleased to get that deal..id love to only pay 1 doll for gallon of milk...but not worth living in an area where you cant find a job, or might get shot going to aldi..lol
I've actually gotten a dozen of eggs for $0.25 quite a few times at ALDI...I've never seen milk for $1 a gallon
Those Aldi “cheese-it’s” are REALLY good. The unfair difference between the nachos is the MSG in Doritos. This is a great review, I appreciate y’all for sharing.
Thanks so much for watching!
The aldi chips don't taste very good as lays or doritos chips i like the name brand alot better
That’s so funny how the pattern on his eyes look like eyes LOL
I know! Haha
I like Aldi's because its GMO free and they don't use harmful ingredients. Aldi brand often taste better than real brand.
I agree!
I didn't realize they were gmo free...how do you know that?
Gaming Palooza Empire if you eat wheat corn dairy anything conventional meat....that's not organic. You are ingesting GMO. All corn soy wheat and conventional animal feed is GMO.
Yo Doe THIS, people don’t realize what the ANIMALS ARE FED, IS IMPORTANT to distinguish if it is GMO free/Organic or not. Too many products are labeled GMO free for the product not “containing it”, but yet, are being fed it.
Do you read all their labels? A lot of their stuff does contain harmful ingredients. A lot of those things are from Asia.
Perfect blind fold pattern over the eyes, like a ninja turtle.
Haha. We've laughed over this too!
Doritos connoisseur! LOL I just started going to Aldi a few months ago, I do not buy a whole lot of packaged foods there mostly produce but I love their SimplyNature White Cheddar Cheese Puffs, so yummy!! Great video! Kudos!
Yum! Those are good! We love their produce too!
Aldi's is the bomb!!! Good products for half the price, i can spend $200 for a month, verses $400 at shoprite or any other store!! Im sticking to aldi like who doesn't wanna save money!!!???
Totally agree! We love Aldi!
Lovely K ....I agree. So why does 90% of the public within 3 miles driving distance shop at all the lesser value stores? Its amazing but true!
I love Aldi too..but you are right... all of their chips have always been saltier than they need to be
Cute couple
Thanks so much, Elizabeth!
We do 80% of our shopping at ALDI! We love most of the food we get from there. Their produce is also really nice.
Totally agree!
I,m European, I shop at Aldi,s. Try italian round bread(the best I can find in my town), beef very good quality, Deutsche Kuche Bratwurst..
Yum! I need to try that!
Love this, Jess!! Really helpful. Yes, would love to see more of these. Great to have David on with you.
Thanks, Karen! :)
My kids hands down prefer the Aldi's Cheezits. They don't even want me to buy the other if I am heading to another store. They would rather wait for their favorite. Now I must admit that Aldi's did not do as good on their "Weaved wheat crackers". Aka Triscuts.
Hahahaha what a fun video! I was trying to think of what kind of video you guys were doing together - this is perfect hahahaha!
It was so fun! :)
lol i can tell she loves coffee
Most def!
Menia Frazier she loves you too
My husband hauled for Aldi their products are made by name brand just packaged in a different label... If u read some of the labels u will find who made them then research and find a name brand owns it
Great point!
Omg u have to do more of these . Loved the video
We have one more: th-cam.com/video/_8T5wwm05Jg/w-d-xo.html

I'm heading to Aldi's tomorrow, very helpful.
Thanks so much for watching!
We love Aldi it's our favorite Grocery store and it's so affordable!!! Oh yes their products are just as good as the name brands for half the cost.
Agree!
Ice cream!! Haha!! I typed ice cream right before David said it. 😂😂
Haha! Ok! Will do! :)

It'd be cool to do like a battle of all the store brands - like Dollar General, Dollar Tree, Aldi, Walmart, Kroger, etc... like the choc dipped granola bars, etc.
We do that on our channel! We call them Battle of the Brands. :)
FUN!! The Lone Ranger of taste tests!!
Love his commentary 💙
Haha, thanks so much! 😊
I got a gallon of vitamin D milk there for $1.28 love that place. plus it's about half a mile from where I live.
They have great prices on milk!
Here, for the past few months, a gallon of milk has been about 80 cents....can't beat that!
The milk at Aldi goes bad way sooner than the expiration suggest. NEVER AGAIN!
Angel Rivas I've never had issues with their milk going bad before the sell by date.
A gallon of Aldi milk is $3 here and that's considered a great price.
I so love when knock offs beat or are just as good as the original. Especially when the knock off is 50% cheaper. NO BRAINER!
Agree! Win-Win!
kevseb66 .....Then why does over 90% of the public shop everywhere else (if they have an Aldi's within driving distance of 3 miles and they own a car)....Answer....nobrains

Well A
It's just that Aldi is something thought of by many as some dive the po' folk and destitute go to buy from. But really, not necessarily.
loved the blind taste test girl thanks for the video.
Thanks! :)
Colors will be diff in alot of aldi things bc weve removed artificiall dyes and additives
♡ great video. New subbie
Thanks so much, Bethany! Good point! :)
Two or three thumbs up guys! Nice video giving true and honest opinions and I like that. More of these would be really fun to watch. And yes Krispy Kreme IS the very best in the world!!
Thanks so much!
We live down the street from an aldi and I love that store!
That’s awesome!
I just saw two videos on Aldi. I also read over 300 comments. I was the only person to mention blind taste tests.....no exaggeration. Now I came across this title. I haven't even watched it yet and already know what it will talk about.....Aldi offers very good quality food. I have done years of research on sales, psychology, business and more. If you don't learn how to think for yourself, sales and marketing experts will do it for you. (No....an opinion is not enough either)
You are right. We are constantly impressed by Aldi's quality at less than half the price!
Love these tests. Thanks
I love Aldi's !!!!
Me too, Lori!
Well normal people hate it
I love this!!! Soooo much fun!!! Let's do a WW approved one together!! :)
Yes! Totally in!
“I go by color”....totally my husband, lol. When he makes me coffee he puts it in a specific cup, because the color painted around the rim is exactly the color I like my coffee.
Haha! That’s awesome!
Please do another one like this! Maybe great value & name brand

Love your vid! ❤️ We live in a very small town with basically nowhere to shop however we do have an ALDI which I love. I don't care for the knockoff Doritos but I love the potato chips! Sooo much cheaper! They also have a great assortment of cheeses. I use all of their soups & canned goods too!
Totally agree! I especially love their Baked Chips...my favorite!
You two compliment each other for sure... great job...do more videos.....luv it....
Thank you! We will!
We like the knockoff cookies and crackers from Aldi. I go there often. The granola bars and poptarts are really good. You hubby is such a great sport for doing this! :) Maybe do a video on juices and other drinks from there.
I completely agree! Love all of those! Thanks so much!
IT IS TOUGH TO BEAT FRITO-LAY PRODUCTS
CHILEDOUG KIZERIAN I moved to Ireland years ago and I miss frito lay
@CHILIDOUG, I bought the Clancy brand corn chips last week and I like them better than Fritos. Clancy was not as salty. I know Fritos has a less salty chip but not all stores carry them. Plus Aldi's Clancy brand was less expensive.
Marla Bullard ....So many people like you and I save money (up to 50% off!) by simply having an open mind. It truly amazes me how blind taste tests keep proving peoples "taste buds" can be tricked by a popular brand names. That's why its called "blind" taste test comparison! Wine is a perfect example due to the huge amount of money a person will waste. Taste tests have proved people will choose a $5 dollar bottle of wine over a $30 fancy label brand. That a 600% savings difference! Just imagine this savings over a ten year period for disposable income slaves to image marketing strategies.
I love Aldi and like most of their products, but the Clancys chips are just bad, too greasy. I wont but them again
No you can't beat them. Clanceys is horrible.
When supermarket brands sell candy bars, they differ a bit from the original Mars bars, but I pay half the price and they are almost yummy too.
Gotta love that!
FUN ALDI FACT: In Austria they have aldi too.... But there they call it "hofer" and the logo is adjusted a little bit
Interesting!
Love the blind taste test food review video Jess!. You both did a great job describing the differences in name brand and generic brand products. 👍👍!
Thanks so much! It was a lot of fun!
he sounded SOOOO SURE ABOUT THE CHIPS AHOY LOL
Haha. I know!
New Subscriber. Loved this video. I used to do taste test for a living for 12 years. I wasn't the one eating but giving the test I enjoyed watching you. I LOVE Aldi. don't do my entire shopping there but a lot of stuff. It does save money.
Same here. I don’t get everything there either, but I do buy a lot of stuff there! Thanks for watching!
This was fun to watch, we love Aldi!!! Would love more videos like this, you are a cute couple;)
Aww thanks, Deb! We will do more! :)
Love Love Love this!! I think you should keep doing these videos!! I've always been afraid of Aldi for some reason, but would love the money savings!!
Yay! No fear! Aldi is AWESOME!
I loved your husband’s Kobayashi Maru reference when he was taste testing LOL. Great informative video, y’all!!! 😃
Kristi
Haha. Thank you so much!
We prefer the Aldi CheezIt over the real thing as well. Loved this because I find Aldi has better quality on many of their products.
Agree!
I love these kinds of videos!!! I'd love to see more! :-)
Yay! We will definitely do more!
This is really cool guys!! 😀😀
It was fun!
Please do more of these! Also could you do a dollar store vs. name brand taste test?
Planning some of those! Thanks for watching! We do have more Aldi ones: th-cam.com/video/_8T5wwm05Jg/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/118Q_VPjHZs/w-d-xo.html
This was awesome!
Thanks, Gina!
Lidl is coming to the US! SO HAPPY!!! They compete with Aldi's so hopefully it'll drive prices down EVERYWHERE
They are here in some areas! Wish we had one!
Love the taste taste video!! Go save some money Blessed Jess. I love aldis
Me too!
SWEEET!!! Thank You for this. Definitely Helpful!
I SCREAM FOR ICE CREAM!!! : )
Thanks so much for watching! Ice cream! YES!
The off brand says natural not artificial!
This was great! I have been really loving Aldi lately and this taste test was so much fun! I want to try it now! lol
Thanks so much, Jessi! Aldi is awesome!
What a fun video! I usually by mostly name brand but maybe I should try some store brands 😀
Totally!
Thank you for posting this! I'm new to Aldi so this helps so much!!!!💜
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Soda is good Yeah you should do ice cream
What a great job. It is amazing how the Aldi brand items were very close or better! I hope u guys can do more. Great job👍
Thanks so much!
I surely enjoyed this video! I'll have to try this with my husband! He's pretty picky about his food! I think he'll be totally surprised by his choices!! Thanks for this great video! Would like to see more of comparing brand name foods to Aldi or other stores brands!
Thanks so much!
I just started buying the chocolate dipped granola bars from aldi, and They are only .79 cents at our aldi! Love them!
That's an awesome price! They are so yummy!
I wanna try this kind of video because I love Aldis!! it would be so fun to film
It was fun!
My husband loves the way I make his coffee. He ask me how I make it so much better than he can.
Haha. I understand!
💜loved this video!! More please!!
Ok for sure!
I liked the off brand Doritos a lot. Both the ranch and the nacho!
That's awesome! Great savings!
Here in the UK Lidl have a bakery and their donughts are better than a lot of krispy cremes and other stores doughnuts for 30p rather than over £1.50.
That’s awesome! What a great savings!
My kids are obsessed with the chocolate dipped bars and at my aldis they're only 79 cents! Compared to the quacker brand
That's a great price! They are so good!
In my recent visit to the US (transit stop in Charlotte) I noticed quite a lot of differences between different grocery store "culture" in the EU (especially German and Dutch stores) and stores in the US.
Here in Germany there is only a small number of very large shops (e.g. Walmart got bullied out of competition here about ten years ago), a decent amount of rather expensive super markets and a whole lot of ALDI like shops (ALDI north and south, LIDL and some others). Most German stores offer a decent variety of "original" and store-owned cheaper food brands, so everybody has the option to choose.
Another interesting thing I've noticed is that food is generally cheaper in Germany while sodas/pops/softdrinks or whatever you wanna call those sugary drinks are (a lot) cheaper in the US and come in larger bottles aswell (the maximum size for Coke here is 2l e.g. but usually they sell it in sizes of 1 or 1,5l).
So interesting! Thanks so much for the info, I would love to visit Europe!
I love the idea. I also love Aldi
Thanks so much! Aldi is the best!
I would be able to tell the difference, lol. Loved this!!!!!! Xoxoxo
You might be surprised! Haha. Thanks for watching!
Good video. I just love y’all. Please do more comparisons
Will do!
I really really enjoyed this video! You guys are just too cute!!!
Aww thanks! :)
I love everything about Aldis brands except for the pop and the soup. I have found everything else to be great!
We like so many things from there as well! :)
Don't use the Aldi Brand for A-1 Sauce; we did not care for it at all. Had a weird taste. I usually love all of Aldi's products, but NOT that one. I splurge for brand name brand A-1 sauce.
Loved the taste tests. Please do more. Although, after the granola bar taste-test, I can't believe your husband brushed the crumbs from the table onto the floor.
Haha! I didn't even notice that! Although, he is the one who vacuums! :)
I was wondering in your grocery haul the other day why you had the same things in different brands 😊
I enjoyed it, yes!! please do a WW version!!
Haha. I wondered if anyone would notice! We will!
Great video. My hubby loves the Aldis donut shop coffee. Over any other brands.
It is really good!
Great video guys, I love Aldi
Thanks so much!
His blindfold looked like two eyes 😂
I LOVE LOVE LOVE cheez-its and Aldi's is by far my favorite for their "cheez-its" :)
I agree!
Thank you for doing these videos. I was raised that brand name is what you buy and that knock offs are never as good or of as good quality. I get produce, cheese and eggs from Aldi, but haven't been brave enough to try other things
We use the Aldi nachos for taco salads. I think anything where the chip is not the focus they are perfectly swappable. My daughter is growing up on them and likes them fine.
Agree! I bet that would be good!
