Hooray for North Minneapolis! Hooray for Aldi's! As a single person, shopping
at big box can be daunting so I'm glad for the Aldi alternative. I've found
their products to be of good quality and especially good value.
Me:
I find myself strangely attracted to Aldi's. It is a great place for basic
staples - I buy cases of kidney beans there. The biggest bummer is the
percentage of processed foods is higher than in a traditional supermarket - my
heart sags (hopefully not literally) for America's health walking in there --
but they are not alone in this, and are certainly better than a corner store.
I always love reminding people that the parent company of Aldi's also owns
Trader Joes! Down-market generics, up-market generics - sometimes you wonder if
it's same stuff, different can.
