#Aldi has revamped their #PlantMenu range. I'm glad they've finally got the veggie fingers back in.

My supermarket vegan megapost:
I saw these in #Aldi the other day.

They're nice, like PomBear a bit. It's labelled #vegetarian, but not #vegan, but I can't see any animal based ingredients in there?
This drink is rank. Somehow #Aldi made a drink that tastes of morning breath.

I bought one of these a while ago, but it was during my social media break so I didn't post about it. But my aunt (the one with the hello cat) got one when she invited me over for lunch, so we had half each. We added extra peppers and sweetcorn to it.
It's really nice. I'm not too keen on the onions, but other than that it's good.

@sharongascoigne oh good to know! I don't remember ever seeing them. Somehow that brand completely passed me by!

The strawberry taste quickly gets an artificial aftertaste. The texture is very gummy, much like gelatine sweets, which I'm not a big fan of, but you may be. I probably won't buy these again.
I think the Candy Kittens were better.

"A London Cheesecake is a classic British pastry that consists of a flaky puff pastry base, filled with a layer of jam, topped with a coconut and almond sponge, and often garnished with a cherry on top. However, as seen in many modern versions, the cherry is sometimes omitted, focusing more on the rich coconut topping. Unlike its name might suggest, there’s no cheese in a London Cheesecake."

There's something on there resembling vegan cheese, but I'm not sure what, as I can't see any vegan cheese on the ingredients list.

I bought a pack and they taste pretty much how you'd expect them to taste. Nice puff pastry, a lot of coconut, barely any jam.
Anyway, I was pushing my luck with how much chocolate keeps my tummy fat down. Turns out there is a limit. Who knew!
Has anyone tried #GiantBradleys #vegan range?

The fudge looks so tempting!
Tesco's Aldi price match is a scam to raise prices while pretending they're keeping them low.
This soya milk was the one thing on my shopping list that stayed consistently cheap, even covid and the Ukraine invasion didn't raise it. It was 50p for years.
Then it went to 55p last year with an Aldi price match. Now it's 79p -- a 44% increase -- with an Aldi price match. So you raised the price again to match Aldi.
What happened to #Plantastic?
I never even heard of it until today. I was looking at a page of accidentally vegan food, and Mr Kipling apparently has some vegan products in its line. I was looking that up to find that its parent company, Premier Foods, launched a #vegan range called #Plantastic about 5 year ago. Searching for it brings up some dead links to Tesco pages.
Strange that I never even heard of this brand. It seems to already be defunct.
