It's finally back! ALDI fans say this returning item is ‘absolutely delicious’
- Replies 1
Social media has erupted with excitement after a much-loved product quietly made its return to supermarket shelves.
What started as a simple post online quickly sparked a frenzy among devoted fans eager to get their hands on it once more.
Now, with shoppers racing to stores, it’s clear this cult favourite hasn’t lost its charm.
ALDI Australia had shoppers rushing to stores after quietly bringing back one of its most talked-about freezer treats.
The cult-favourite butter chicken naanwich returned to shelves and quickly caused a stir, with fans flooding social media to share their excitement.
Originally launched in 2019, the naanwich was an instant hit, with customers wiping out stock during its initial release.
A play on words, the naanwich* combined soft naan bread with a generous serve of creamy butter chicken, creating a hybrid snack ALDI once described as being ‘like a taco but better’.
Sold in a two-pack for $4.99, the frozen meal could be ready to eat in just 45 seconds in the microwave.
Its latest comeback was marked by a viral post on social media from a self-declared ‘ALDI enthusiast’ named Gemma.
Gemma’s video, where she excitedly unveiled her find, racked up over 346,000 views in just two days.
‘This is possibly the most excited I’ve ever been for an ALDI product,’ she said.
‘I was worried this wasn’t going to be a good butter chicken, but this is a big slay. I need to go stock up on these.’
She ate hers with cutlery because it was too hot to hold, but the meal could easily be eaten by hand.

The snack first gained traction when ALDI posted about it on its official social media page, prompting thousands of comments and shares from intrigued customers.
That original post saw over 6,000 likes and close to 30,000 comments from shoppers who had either already tried the product or were desperate to get their hands on it.
‘I bought these and they’re actually really good. Easiest and quickest dinner or lunch solution,’ one person wrote.
‘This is basically how I already ate my butter chicken but God damn now it’s made easier,’ said another.
‘I have tried these,’ a third said. ‘They are absolutely delicious.’
The relaunch was clearly driven by customer demand, but ALDI has not confirmed whether the naanwich would be a permanent fixture on shelves moving forward.
For now, it remained a winter comfort food favourite—available only while stocks lasted.
‘Don’t walk, run to ALDI because this naanwich I think has changed my life,’ Gemma added.
In a previous story, ALDI unveiled new in-store features that are already changing the way Australians shop.
The announcement sparked just as much excitement among loyal customers as this week’s surprise freezer favourite comeback.

With the naanwich making such a strong comeback, could this be ALDI’s most beloved freezer item yet? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
