Aldi's can save you money when shopping for organic foods. If you're not already buying organic, I…read moreencourage you to start, like your life depends on it. I know it's expensive but as a society, it's important that we start thinking more about where our food comes from, how it's actually made and how it affects our body. Food, my friends, is medicine.
Just to mention some everyday organic staples that you can find here that are super affordable: they have organic garlic, onion, cumin, ground cinnamon and cayenne pepper spices super cheap (under $3 which is unheard of). They have some organic fruits and veggies (apples, avocados and sweet potatoes to name a few). Organic eggs, milk, yogurt, half & half, butter and sometimes Mexican or Mozzarella shredded cheese. There's organic chicken sausage, chicken fingers, whole chicken, chicken breast and ground beef. You'll also find organic extra virgin olive oil, balsamic salad dressing, oatmeal, wheat pasta, sauce and some snacks for the kids (PB&J, gummies and granola bars)... don't forget the nacho chips and salsa!
I also shop at Aldi's for charcuterie board items. They have some yummy blueberry/cranberry goat cheese, several different cheese varieties, prosciutto, salami and quite a few dips. They even have a brand called Specially that caters to charcuterie items, you'll find: nuts, desserts, olives, jelly, smoked salmon and always something you didn't even think of to add that looks tasty!
Aldi's is easy to navigate, it's not a huge store like Tops and Wegmans or even Whole Foods. But you need to bring a quarter for a cart, your own bags, and be prepped to check yourself out.
Eat better, feel better!
