    I love Aldi and discovered a couple of good finds, I highly recommend the wild caught salmon filets, a pound (about 4 filets) for only $3.99, also the Fit N Active brand is very good including the Poppyseed dressing and bags of salad, and since they own Trader Joe's there are hidden gourmet brands - the Grandessa brand is one of them and most anything I tried with that brand is delicious!! The home made salsa is awesome and very low fat and very healthy. The "Sea Queen" seafood is very good including the Mussels and Crab Cakes. The Fit N Active yogurt is good, and the coffee - I can't think of the brand, but it's in the bags and I think one of them is "Kona" very good. Happy shopping!!

    I LOVE Aldi's super cheap and there food is very good quality I have never had a problem there! They have these microwavable bags of veggies they are so good and incredibly low calories! Fit and Active is very good also! All the products I haven't found something I didn't like. They have these devil food cookies! YUM! Also the chocolate and peanut butter protein bars which are great to eat about an hour before working out!

    Thanks - We do Micro veggies too, I work late M-Th & Friday I get out an hour early. Quick is best.....Thanks for the heads up on everything else.

    You have to keep your eyes out for my favorite that is only available seasonally - the fit & active Turkey burgers. They are only about $5 for 10 or 12 patties and only 130 cals each - cheaper and less cals then Jennie-O. Hopefully they will be back for memorial day and the summer cookout season so I can stock up!

    I also get hummus there for about $1.69, salad for $.99 and baby spinach bags for under $2. The eggs, milk, froz fish & chix are always a great deals too. I have NEVER been disappointed with any purchase there.

    Aldi's is awesome :) The only think I would caution is the fit n active mini cupcakes.....at first I thought I was in heaven - - they did not taste diet at all -- but within the hour i was miserable. But the rest of their line is really good and Aldi's regular prices beat most items at your other big stores.

    Happy shopping :)

    I like the Fit and Active Orange Sorbet bar. They are 110 calories each but nice and thick so it makes me happy to have one for dessert from time to time. :)
