I tried one of these for the first time last week ....... my intention was to see if i liked it for those days when i can't fit a proper lunch in because i am run off my feet so i could have this instead ....... with that in mind I was real...ly impressed with the flavour and how long i was full for after having this shake ....... it was sweet but i would prefer real sugar over artificial sugar .......... if i didn't have this i would probably end up eating something prepackaged even worse for me so I thought it was ok ......... for $2 it is also a super cheap on the go lunch option.
I love Aldi so much I have started this blog!! Does ALDI Pay me now? ALDI sponsors ALDI Mum to run giveaways on the page and do food and products reviews on facebook and my blog, I also provide Aldi with a summary of discussion topics and concerns that arise within the ALDI Mum Facebook page. Does ALDI tell me what to say? ALDI provides updates (such as new products) that I could discuss on the ALDI Mum Facebook Page & Blog, ALDI does not explicitly determine what I post on ALDI Mum.

Aldi Food Review - Pepperoni Salami
We make a pepperoni pizza at least once a fortnight and use this ......... it's a little bit spicy so me and the hubby love it but the kidlets not so much .......... it costs $3.69 for 250 grams ....... I find all salami quite fatty so only ever eat it as a somtimes food but we do really like this one!!!
Aldi Food Review - Canola Spread
I took this photo at my parents house as they use this and like it .......... it is a great price at $1.49 for 1kg ............ I can't review it from personal experience but most of the reviews on the Aldi Mum facebook page only had good things to say!!!

This bag of chips costs $1.99 and is always 250grams!!! Other supermarket chip packet sizes can change from 175-250grams depending on whether it is on sale ....... very sneaky ....... but with Aldi they are always cheap, always quality and always the same size!!!
