Neat. There is an Aldi’s not too far from here. Will stop in.’

Please don’t. It is one of the grosses grocery stores on the planet. I went once and bought because some friends talked me into giving it a try. I have four kids so any savings will welcomed. I literally bought a couple hundred dollars worth of food and at the end of two weeks had to apologize to the entire family for feeding them disgusting crap like that. Just keep doing what you are doing because you are doing it right. If you don’t want Kellogg’s anymore, just don’t buy it. But stay far far away from Aldi’s for your own health and the health of your family.

For Aldi’s, I’d say be selective, more than usual. The dollar store, same sort of “be selective” deal. There might be some decent things there. I would not judge them that harshly. Maybe one can get raisins, etc. such things on the cheap.

Honestly, here is their weekly ad. Does it look so bad? Berries, Apples.

And as a rule, I don’t ever go there. Too far but I know people who do.

Actually - they have redid alot of their products - their health and organic are actually better or just as good as Kroger or Walmart...shop wise...that’s with anything....

They have a great little deli section and I get my almond milk there as well- no problems since they did a major over haul last year...some of the stores have wine - and they import German chocolate...I’ve shopped at Aldi’s for over 10 yrs off and on...just depends on the store I guess...

So I went to Aldi today looking for cereal and discovered they carry a brand called "Millville". The Millville cereal varieties are replicas of big name-brand counterparts. I walked out with five boxes of cereal to try. I poured myself a bowl of Honey Grahams, similar to a General Mills product, just to test the waters. Loved it. Tastes perfect. A bowl of Cocoa Rice showed it too is virtually indistinguishable from the competing Kelloggs version. We are on to something here. Kelloggs and General Mills didn't sell me any product today. So those dollars I did spend won't be used to advocate homosexuality. I can happily recommend Aldi for cereal; and I will explore their other goods as well. Kelloggs won't have any more of my breakfast money.
