Aldi’s highly anticipated American snack food Special Buys has returned!

Everyone’s flocking to their local Aldi stores today after the budget retailer announced that several cult-favourite treats from the United States are back on their shelves.

In anticipation of the American holiday on July 4, Aldi’s middle aisle is set to feature some of the most well-known chocolates and snacks from the US.


And even if you haven't stepped foot in the States, you may be able to recognise some of the food items if you’re a fan of American TV shows and movies.

From Oreos and Reese’s cups to blocks of Hershey’s and Butterfingers, this is the sign for you to give the beloved snacks a shot if you haven’t yet!

Aldi shoppers have previously raved over the $4.99 Reese's Dipped Pretzels as well as Hershey's Popped Snack Mix retailing for $4.99, both of which have successfully proven that sweet and salty are a match made in heaven.

The other food items included in the range are Pop-Tarts, and uncommon chip flavours such as Buffalo Wings and Texan BBQ Ribs. There are also a variety of BBQ rubs, seasoning, and sauces to bring your BBQ game to another level during friend or family gatherings.


At the top of several customers’ must-have lists is the iconic Frank's Hot Sauce. As the love for Buffalo wings surges, having a mouth-watering sauce within arm’s reach to achieve an authentic flavour is the perfect way to go.

In addition, Frank's Hot Sauce was the secret ingredient incorporated in the very first Buffalo wing created in Buffalo, New York back in 1964.

That’s right folks…all those highly processed, extremely unhealthy snacks are back!!! Are you really going to waste your money on that crap?!?!?!
 
Haven't we got enough Americanisms already in our beautiful Australia? Concentrate on "All Australian" comforts EVERY DAY, without going into their July 4th. Our grocery list has been curtailed @ present, but there is comfort in concentrating on our talent to perfect new dishes to stay alive in keeping our talents to the fore in new recipes. No wonder brain-power is scrambling fast because we don't wish to try something new. We whinge when challenge is mentioned. We never know just what we CAN do until we REALLY try. Give it a go. If you cannot do big things, then try doing little things in a big way. You never know what can eventuate from a surprise.
