    ALDI brings back its luxury, award-winning Curated Collection starting at $4.99!

    Shoppers notice disappointing changes on one ALDI fan favourite

    True. The quality of the baking paper has fallen. The new stuff is not a patch on the old one. It allows the oil to get through and appears thinner... probably changed suppliers that made the paper tinner and not enough wax. By making the paper thinner they are making a fortune.... just like...
