Who is wrong

[Rizzoli123]

Me and husband did a small shop today. We went to Aldi. I like Aldi for many reasons. It has great choice and value.

Came home and told mother in law where we had been she said why did you to there I don't like eating s**t food.

He idea of good food is shopping at waitrose. Its nice but expensive. I know we can get the same quality and value of food from aldi and save a little to.

If I am honest a carrot is a carrot wherever you buy it.

Is she wrong to say that the food in shops such as aldi and Lidl are s*t?

Your mil sounds uncouth. Do you live with her?

I think your MIL is rude, but not wrong - it's just a personal opinion.

I'm fully team Waitrose fwiw (and local butchers / greengrocers!) - our local Aldi / lidl are absolutely shocking quality, veg especially goes off really quickly and the meat is suspicious a lot of the time.

FORGOT TO SAY WE ALL LIVE IN SAME HOUSE

I'd be moving away from her. Rude woman.

Hmm I find at least half of the food i have tried at aldi is crap but same for most stores i do half shopping there on stuff we like then the rest at sainsbury's or morrisons ect

Buy bags for life from Waitrose and use them in whichever supermarket suits you. Dont tell DMiL where shopping has come from.

Some people buy into named brands being superior - across the supermarket ranges, it's very often not true at all, of course you have to compare like with like, so chicken breast from butcher, Aldi/Lidl, Morrisons/Tesco/Asda, M and S/Waitrose, not chicken breast from one and nuggets from another (even if one sells more nuggets than the other). We don't have Aldi where I live (we'd have to get on a boat and drive a fair bit) but we do have Lidl and a lot of their things are cheaper and better quality than Tesco (we also don't have other large chain supermarkets). I also like how Lidl have ranges from different countries, and the no frills approach.

She’s talking bollocks. You have to shop around to find some amazing stuff. Sure Waitrose and M&S food is a bit nicer but a lot of the time cheaper shops are just as good or even better. Iceland £3 frozen paella is better than the Waitrose or M&S fresh ones and much cheaper. Your MIL is a snob and while living with you is welcome to shop herself.

Of course she’s wrong. I’m more concerned that you let her speak to you like that - she’d be getting a short, sharp response and possibly a kick up the arse on her way to the door.
