While a mega merger between two of America’s largest grocery chains is snarled in regulatory red tape, a smaller European entrant is eyeing a major expansion in the US.
Aldi is great. Walmart has been robbing small towns in America without competition for long enough. I hope more Americans shop at Aldi and save more money while getting healthier food at a fair price.
That is what fresh food not overloaded with preservatives will do. You should really make fresh produce shopping more of a daily activity as you need it. But not everyone has that kind of time understandably bi-weekly also doable for truly fresh produce along with you plan out your meals for the week
And my point was almost no one has that kind of time and that it’s not realistic to expect vegetables to only last a day or two when that has never historically been the case.
Aldi provides way better working conditions than Walmart, that’s for sure. Imagine being able to sit during a job that doesn’t require standing – in America!!!
Almost everything at Aldi is private label, which is why it is cheaper (again you only find a few recognizable name brands). However, I will not by fresh foods from Aldi as most of the time as it goes bad fast. I do like their snacks and prepackaged deli stuff tho.

Does Aldi provide better deals than Walmart?
I used to shop there, but the prices were comparable and everything went bad fast.

What are you talking about? Kroger is not injecting their apples with preservatives.
Are you fucking joking? You expect a single parent working two jobs to go shopping daily as well?
If you actually continue on to read the entire message you’ll notice the part where I mentioned that not everyone has that kind of time

Edit: Since so many of you think vegetables only last a day after they’ve been picked- https://extension.sdstate.edu/storage-life-vegetables
I don’t they last a day but they shouldn’t last a month either.
Aldi’s produce ”going bad” is on par with my local farmer’s market.

Learn canning and preserving like baba
Or just shop at Walmart.
Yeah, that’s because the food is fresh and less treated than what most Americans are used to. Going bad fast is not necessary a bad thing.
No, it’s because it’s old produce that is close to expiring.
The aldi simps here are insane, but another reason why I don’t take the masses seriously anymore.

I drive 20 minutes out of my way to shop at aldi rather than win-dixie (which they’ve bought recently) down the street for my monthly large shopping.
