ALDI vs NAME BRAND FOOD (Blind Taste Test)

[@robbiekorhumel9991]

That's the wrong Aldi pizza...noooo... you gotta compare digiorno to mama cozzi's...they are identical and so fricken good...even the box is almost identical. Its frozen not refrigerated:)

[@melissamartin5506]

Yes I agree!!! Mama Cazzi pizza at Aldi in the freezer is great. Not that refrigerated one at Aldi

[@Grosie922]

I came here to say this! Lol I love Mama Cozzi’s!

Well the problem she freeze that pizza and on the box it'll say not to refreeze.

[@cruztastrophe]

Those giant Aldi pizzas I'm pretty sure say right on the box to not freeze them because their frozen during shipment. Thawing and refreezing can mess up bread texture, so if that was your main issue, you should try again with a different flavor of pizza and unfrozen. Also, Aldi salsa is amazing. I think you got a bad jar. You should try Aldi brand of cereals.

[@samanthab3292]

Oh. Whoops definitely froze those before

[@hueofpurple]

Try the Mama Cozi (Aldi) pizza! It's the frozen ones. It's really good, I've always liked it.

[@pyenme]

Agree 100%. Mama Cozzi pizzas are amazingly good for the price. I like the thin crust. Only issue is they have "limited time" flavors that I fall in love with and then can never get again - they had a meatball pizza a few months ago that was really good!

It must have been a bad jar of Aldi's salsa. Aldi's has a 200% money back guarantee on their products. If you bring it back they will give you a fresh jar and your money back. Did the top pop when you first opened the Aldi's jar? Maybe someone opened it at the store and hocked a huge loogie in it. It's been known to happen.

Try the Mama Cozzi pizza in the freezer section. Not sure why someone would by a refrigerated pizza that clearly says take and bake, take it home and freeze it and than bake it and compare it with a frozen pizza. Well duh it's not gonna taste right you miss handled the thing

I don't think the pizza comparison was fair at all. I hope you retry this one! Take and bake pizzas are not supposed to be frozen at all (that's why they call them "take and bake" not "take and freeze").

[@TheDmonet]

Exactly, I've had the take and bake and it's decent. Of course, living in New York you can get a great pizza on every corner so very rarely is any store bought pizza the right call.

Not sure the 2 pizzas were a fair comparison....Frozen vs. take-n-bake. Maybe compare Aldi’s take-n-bake with Walmart’s take-n-bake OR the Digiorno style Aldi brand (like frozen, rising crust style) vs Digiorno.

Aloe advice: find a north-facing window in your home, plunk the aloe near it with a saucer underneath the pot to hold water. When watering, do not water the soil often, but pour water into saucer so the plants roots get the moisture, not the aloe leaves.

[@schlik7]

RE: the Aldi pizza: Do not freeze it; before baking, let pizza get to room temp. Cooking instructions: 1.) Preheat oven to 550 degrees 2.) grease (with cooking spray) a 16-inch round cooking sheet and place room temp pizza on it; 3.) bake on middle rack 12-13 minutes at 550 degrees, cheese will be bubbling when done; 4.) let cool for 5 minutes before slicing. It took much trial and error but when I cook it this way, it comes out FABULOUS. Better than any frozen pizza you'll buy.

I think it would be interesting for a European (as Aldi is German) to do one of these taste tests in the US. I wonder if we have different taste preferences because of ingredients used etc. I think soya lecithin is used often in food here in the UK! I know our sweets (candies) can be different over here! Our chocolate definitely isn't the same. Do you guys have Lidl there as well? Could do a Lidl, Aldi, US alternative taste test lol!

[@thereaderbug398]

I think you should look at the difference in ingredients *after* you taste them because I think it can scew your impression of which is which like when you tasted the juice. I think you thought the one that tasted less sweet was automatically the Aldi brand since you saw that the ingredients had a little less sugar. Just a thought, I really like these videos though. :)

[@pyenme]

I always buy the Aldi Fair Trade Certified Dark Roast (like you have in your video)- especially over Starbuck's. IMO, people who prefer Starbuck's like the burnt taste of that dark roast over a smoother taste and finish of most other dark roasts. I have friends who have independently and without prompting described Starbuck's as "burnt", as well. I would be able to tell which one was Starbuck's, too - but not because it was better. I really have come to think some people have conditioned themselves to think because Starbuck's got us going on "designer" coffee, it must be better. I used to drink Starbuck's when it was the only game in town, but with good quality brands at the store - and my own hometown coffee place, which is not a chain, and better and cheaper - I haven't had Starbuck's in YEARS. And the price of Aldi coffee is just a bonus.

Pooh about the salsa and Pizza. That would have been huge savings!
