Title: 'Groovy' biscuits at Aldi
Post by: oldspice on January 27, 2013, 04:46:32 pm: I picked up a box of these in Aldi today and they are fabulous! There are six biscuit bars in a box. The biscuits have a crumbly shell, open on top, and filled with a chewy chocolate substance. They are studded with coiloured chocolate sweets like Smarties.

They are SO nice. See link for example:

Agreed. There are always interesting and quirky products to try - and I love Lidl too!

Post by: wjp666 on April 02, 2013, 04:13:20 pm: I do applaud Lidl and Aldi for their unique originality when it comes to chocolate/biscuits. Unfortunately the staff in our local stores are just awful and so I use Morrisons and ASDA instead... for twice the price, may I add.

I like being a snob. I shop at Waitrose, so there!

Yeah, yeah, yeah - I shop at Waitrose too - sometimes. I shop at M&S too - sometimes. And I have no problem shopping at Aldi and Lidl - sometimes. I'm not proud. Live and let live. What does it matter if some people like discount stores?
