Why is everyone raving about ALDI's El Tora brand?

Taco nights are a great way to please everyone at the dinner table. Whether you want to go simple with one kind of meat and simple seasoning, or if you'd like to build a taco bar with various toppings to choose from—you can't go wrong with complete customisation!

But so much goes into preparing food like tacos that sometimes it can all be tiring.

Luckily, we may have ALDI to thank for making taco nights much easier with their El Tora‑branded products!


To get you off to a good start, then El Tora Soft Taco Kit has everything you need: 10 soft tacos, a packet of powdered taco seasoning, and a packet of mild chunky salsa!

Individual components are available for purchase, too, such as the Chunky Salsa Dip in mild and medium.

‘I'm in love with ALDI's El Tora Salsa Dip. It has the perfect consistency and burst of flavour to complement any meal.’ said one customer.

‘Once again Aldi products do not disappoint, chunky dip which goes very well with the Nacho chips.’ added another.

Speaking of chips, the El Tora corn chips are another shining star on ALDI’s shelves.

‘Another staple in our pantry! Nacho cheese is our favourite whether teamed with salsa or turned into delicious nachos. They are full of flavour and full of crunch!’ said Rose, a member of ALDI’s Testers Club.

Another customer continued, ‘Great tasting—guests didn't know the difference between these and the more expensive better-known brand.’

El Tora also has a range of toppings on offer. You might like to add a can of their Black Beans for some extra protein.

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius.

  5. Chop onions, tomatoes and lettuce and set aside in separate dishes. Add cheese and your preferred salsa.
  6. Take taco shells out of the oven after 5 minutes. Let cool for 1 minute.
  7. Set it all on the dinner table, and viola!!

VIOLA???? I wish people wouldn't use foreign language words if they don't know how to spell them!

VOILA is a French word, meaning there it is or there you are.

How can ” key takeaways” on a standard product available in all supermarkets exclude price when advertising ONE supermarket? Crazy BS.
