Aldi Food Review - Green Tea with Jasmin


 I am a green tea fan and particularly with Jasmine!!! From other supermarkets you can pay $3 or $4 for a pack but this packet from Aldi only costs $1.49!!! This green tea is quite bitter but i really like it!!!

Aldi Food Review - All Natural Kids Cheese Sticks!!!


I picked some of these up on my trip to Aldi on Friday and i am very impressed!!! I did hesitate at first because they are a more expensive kids snack however they are only 4 ingredients (milk, salt, enzyme, culture)..............my one year old was a fan................you do keep these ones in the fridge but they can survive half a day in a lunch box................a much better option than the ones you buy straight off the shelf!!!

We have two packets of these is our cupboard at the moment!! My 3 year old loves sultanas so we go through lots of these...........from memory they cost around $2.99 for the packet which is amazing considering they are organic.............I eat them in porridge in the morning and think they taste great!!! Just another little Aldi gem!!!

Aldi Food Review - Fruit in Juice Packs


These are a life saver for me..........my one year old refuses to eat fruit except for watermelon and frozen blueberries but she will eat the two fruits in juice!!!! These are a great size for her for a snack so i can put one in my bag and off i go!! They cost $2.79 for a 4 pack and the thing i like about them the most is that they are not too sweet........all natural with no added preservatives or sugar!!!

Aldi Food Review - New Crispetts Crispbread


Well I finally managed to pick up some of these after being sold out at my local Aldi for a couple of weeks ......... the verdict is ......... great ........ they are a bit smaller in size than your classic crusket and they are a mix of wheat, rye and rice flour instead of just being one type of grain ........ you still have that melt in your mouth experience ............ and they only cost $2.29 a packet!!!

Aldi Food Review - Premium Baked Beans


 I like these baked beans because there is nothing artificial in them........their sugar content is low which is good but they are quite high in salt.............they cost $2.99 for a 4 pack and the tins are large enough to do my 1 year old for 2 lunches!!!
