Don't be ridiculous.

I am being very good.

I am getting 0% yogurt, some fish pies and some other bits.

There's this guy in aldi and he looks quite nice, although they wear masks in there still. But I have been keeping an eye on him. I am secretly hoping he might ask me out on a date whilst he is throwing my shopping at me.

Hasn't happened yet but there's always hope

He's more likely gonna call security and have you chucked out than ask you out.

Have you chatted to him? you should create a spillage that's always a good ice breaker in a supermarket.

I think he might be straight which is just my luck. Yes we've had a little chat but I get nervous. He's asked me how I am and what job I do and my plans, but then he might just be being nice. He does ask others how they are.

I'd feel like a common criminal if I did that, it's beyond me.

I find those types of supermarkets to be third world.
And que at the checkouts the food has gone off time you get to the front.

I like their yoghurts and fish pie.

They also do no sugar sweets... They do have all the fake sugar in but I don't care, they're low calorie

But yeah you don't get the same experience as other supermarkets. I do like how they have stuff in the middle aisles though

The stuff in the middle is like doing a weekly shop round a car boot

I just like branded items and sticking with what I know

Saying Aldi is third world is a bit snobby
There are certain things that I will only buy branded but most things are packaged in the same factories......they just stick different labels on for whatever supermarket they are going to.
Waitrose use the same warehouses as Aldi....

If its third world, I might start a go fund me as its pretty much sustaining me and my boy with the cost of living at the moment. I think I need a Live Aid in my name

I don’t knock any one for shopping there and who doesn’t love the pound shop

By third world I mean staff never any more than one person on the till and went I walk round I can’t see anything I want but each to their own.

It doesn't, but I just go with lower calorie item and I like it. What will make you fat is if you take in more food than your body requires for energy.

As far as branding and 'low far' foods go it is a con. They are often replaced with more sugar to make up for the no fat.

There's healthy fats and bad fats such as trans. Most are lead to believe they should avoid fat and packaging doesn't help.

Atkins, ketogenic diet for example, are diets high in fats and that's for a reason... There are huge benefits to eating good fats.

But everything in moderation.

I'm only playing with you. (I'll post the link to my gofundme later )

I cook lots from scratch so makes no difference to me where I buy ingredients from and Aldi for a lot of things is cheapest. Their meat has been questionable so I tend to go to other places for that but the staples I need are there and cheap so good enough for me..
