Aldi Flops ~ Buy something & not like it ~ post it here

What did you try from Aldi and not like?

(They have a great return policy!

I bought an electric skillet that was cracked. They took it back with no issues. I also returned a big bottle of dishwasher detergent because it was leaving a film on my dishes (I do like the powder though.)
And I recently returned a bottle of laundry detergent because I didn't realize it was not for HE washers. I love their return policy.

My kids are not fans of their applesauce cups. Haven't had a problem with anything else.

The pasta, to me, is not very good. It just doesn't cook up very well.

I used to love their danish, but about a year ago, they changed the formula, and DH and I no longer care for it.

The same thing with the packaged "Little Debbie" type brownies. DH and I used to love them, but they are now "chocolate flavored" and not very good. We would have gladly paid a little more for the same brownies.

Also, the shortening is terrible. It looks fine in texture, but doesn't bake up well. I now stick to Crisco brand only.

The corned beef hash is odd imo. I used to buy the fruit pies for my hubby often, but then one batch tasted off. I complained once to the store, but it was about packaging, they did however replace my item. While retrieving scrumptious chunks of broken pirouette cookies from a tube like container I cut my hand open pretty good on the tin inlay. I was calling more to make a suggestion, and they said they were already working to correct the problem.

We're not fans of their bacon. I'm pretty sure it's the only item we've ever been in agreement that we'd never buy again.

Oh I can't agree more, then one we took home was Maple flavored or something, it was awful.

Frozen pizza, the sauce was very sweet crust was bland and cardboardish. The cheese pizza was bad...even the kids didn't like it, the combo version was more tolerable. I want to say it was named Mama Mia.
