A random recommendation: Aldi’s “Liskeel” organic probiotic natural yogurt. I picked some up last week and they beat similar offerings from Lidl, Rachel’s, Glenisk and even the delicious Killowen yogurt. As it happens, the Aldi yogurts are unsurprisingly cheaper, but let’s forget about value for just a moment: they’re simply nicer. Thick, smooth and naturally creamy, this natural yogurt is perfect. Good for lining the hungover stomach too!
Every Thursday and Sunday at Aldi, you can pick up a range of special buys. Today’s set includes some DIY gear, sweeping brushes and an excellent chance to stock up your Asian larder. I haven’t tried the Asia brand but I’d love to hear feedback. The choice includes:
- Asian Sauces – 99c
- Asian condiments (fish sauce, teriyaki garlic sauce) – 79c
- Red and Green curry pastes – €1.29
Finally, don’t forget that you can pick up a selection of fruit and veg, including 250g asparagus, 750g Rocha pears, and 2 kilos of potatoes for just 59c. This is one of the best Super6 offers I’ve seen. Click here for more details.

I’ve a Liskeel yogurt there in front of me. I bought some thinking they they would be an nice healthy alternative mid afternoon snack. They do taste good, but the contents have shocked me. I don’t normally eat yogurt but I don’t think this is normal. Per pot: 160 cals 8% RDA(recommended daily allowance) Not too bad. 22.1g sugar 25%RDA – Shocking, thats about four teaspoons of sugar. 5.0g fat 7%RDA, not too bad. 3.0g sats 15% RDA – thats a lot. 0.19g salt 3%. I wont be buying them again. Back to fruit I think.

Guess that explains why they’re so tasty Laine- they’re essentially a dessert!

Ah, that’s why they tasted so creamy. Well I don’t care, give me more.
