They used to be my tasty cheat, now both taste like shite and I’ve had to resort to the original KPs. The loss of the foil lining was the first indication they were cutting the cost and quality, they probably originate from the same bulk factory now.
Edit: I was taking a last photo before I poured them into the brown bin.
The Lidl and Aldi peanut dry roasting factories have conspired against you.
Youll get the KP dry roasted for fuck all in Dealz. Stop whinging
When asked to comment, Aldi said “Deez nuts”.
No improved recipe has ever actually improved
It’s just making you learn a lesson that Pistachios are the only way to go.
Dunnes and Supervalu do own brand dry roasted peanuts that are very tasty. Not quite KP standard but not bad at all
I firmly believe that diversity is our strength so I prefer the mixed nuts range – a party in a bag I can assure you.
They have both gone to shit tastes of burnt off them
Got a multipack of the snacktastic cheese and onion the other day from lidl. First time getting them as I normally get the 30% less fat ones cause I’m a fat bastard. I swear they didn’t even tease the crisps with so much as a thought of flavouring. Original pringles have more taste than these things. They somehow have negative taste, like they steal the taste of my tongue and you are eating yourself. Made a sandwich without tasting them first and had to eat it. I’m not going to waste the bread and butter. Then, I went and had a cry in the shower like that scene in Ace Ventura.
I’ve gotten tricked by this over many months thinking that no, I must have just got a bad batch where they accidentally only put 1/10th of the flavouring on, they can’t actually mean them to be like that. Oh naive little me…😂
Where did the Lidl peanuts in a can go? They were propeh bo
The Aldi dry roasted peanuts used to be really tasty, we loved them. Then all of a sudden the ‘recipe’ changed and like OP says, they’re disgusting. We stopped buying them.
Just get KP, I’ve learned the hard way. Shout out to Nobbys nuts for also being delicious.
The red warning sign for 14% fat is a bit of a red herring. It’s largely monosaturated/LDL, which is meant to reduce cholesterol levels.
Noticed the change too.
They used to be yummy now they are somehow harder and tasteless.
the coated chilli nuts in both Aldi and Lidl are like crack
Dunnes dry roasted are good. I just ate a large bag so I’ll be waking up at 3am with a mouth like a desert
Shiteflation i.e. use cheaper nastier ingredients.
It’s sad. I loved those Aldi dry roasted peanuts, but the “New and improved” is a downgrade. They taste disgusting now and i’ll never buy them again. I sent them an email as well.
Fuck I thought I just got a dodgy bag. Both of them are horrible now.
Can’t beat KP. Love those big bags.
supervalu ones are my go to.
taste savage and cheap enough
Manhatten 👍
Get the Aldi Salt and Vinegar peanuts. I’m addicted.
Dry Roasted peanuts are one of the few snacks where the brand name actually makes such a difference. KP is king!

[These guys are what you really want](https://groceries.aldi.ie/en-GB/ALDIIE/p-fully-loaded-buffalo-wings-peanuts-200g-snackrite/4088600416731). They have cheaped out on the packaging recently (they no longer come in resealable foil packs, just cheap plastic with no zipper), but so far they remain tasty.
