The economy is miserable. Lots of retail is dying. Whole Foods just shut down a very expensive to build out store in San Fran Sicko.
BUT Aldis is doing great and expanding. I bought some frozen Ahi Tuna there a few days ago. It was very high quality. As it defrosted it hardly put out any water. The effective price was about $6.50 per lb. It comes in a 12oz package.
I love their ahi tuna, too. We go there regularly, they have a lot of good products reasonably priced.
Haven't tried the tuna yet, but we will. It's been hit or miss for us with Aldi. I'm not impressed with their ground beef, and this past week we tried some of their ravioli and tortellini. All of them were disgusting.
Aldi’s is the German discount store. They have far fewer brands and items.
We have these around here - and they are good, but the supermarkets with multiple varieties also have a role to play
