  1. Hey! I’m such a big Aldi fan as well – just went there for a grocery run today. I love telling my friends who shop at other stores about the magic of Aldi. That said, do you know what I always use as the example of “those few items that may not exactly compare to the name brand”? The Aldi “Doritos.” For me, they are not worth the calories and they are absolutely not close to Doritos. Thanks for what you guys do!

    • Haha. I’ve had a few listeners reach out and say the same thing after I made those comments. I’m gonna have to get my tastebuds checked!
