We shop at Aldi a lot, but we also have Trader Joes and I fairly consistently prefer the Trader Joes’ products to the Aldi alternatives - Aldi seems to be aiming for the absolute lowest possible cost of delivery, and when that means rotting fruit in the produce section becasue they’re understaffed / undermanaged… combined with high fructose corn syrup instead of sugar in most of the processed products, lines 12 customers deep at the one open checkout, etc. it gets to be a turn-off.
