Aldi Christmas food

[bagelmonkey]

Anyone tasted any of it yet?
Any recommendations? Anything I should avoid?

a couple of years ago i got their deluxe xmas pudding. it was really nice apart from it had really big nuts in it and some of my guests didnt like too many nuts. since then i have stuck with Mrs Peeks xmas pudding which has recently been on offer at tesco half price which doesnt have big nuts in it at all

The gingerbread houses (out on Thursday this week) last year were beautiful, and tasted great too. They have the Dundee cakes and some other fruit cakes in already and they're always nice, although some of them do have big whole nuts on top. They do nice stollen in several sizes/shapes too, and have got a load of chocolate stuff, santas, reindeer, coins, snowmen etc etc just now that are about the cheapest I've seen.
The three bird roast was a bit disappointing last year, and some of the ready to roast joints are very small (although they are cheap, but still a bit skimpy even taking that into account). The turkey crowns are usually lovely though. (Can you tell we do Aldi Christmas every year )

Ditto what PomBear said about the three bird roast; we had it one Sunday for lunch it it wasn't great

Some of their other food is quite nice though my DH works beside an Aldi with no other supermarkets nearby, so if he's asked to bring anything home it's usually from Aldi.

Good housekeeping gave the Aldi Turkey it's silver award this year, it beat all the other supermarkets premium ranges
