Remember when Fishwife was spotted at Costco, and everyone lost their minds? Or back in 20222 when Ali (@alihooke) on TikTok made tinned fish the trendiest food on the internet? Well, tinned fish mania hasn’t slowed down one bit, and ALDI is once again proving it knows exactly how to ride a viral grocery wave.
The budget grocery chain already made headlines earlier this year when it started carrying Fishwife tins for $7 — a steal compared to the $10+ per can it costs to buy directly from the brand. But now ALDI shoppers are being treated to something even better tucked into the canned food aisle: two brand new Fremont Fish Market tuna tins that look, and taste, according to Reddit, a whole lot like the internet’s favorite fancy fish, for way less than three bucks a can.

The new fish comes in two bold flavors: lemon and chili.

Both flavors come in 3.2 oz cans and are packed in olive oil. Now for the best part — the price. ALDI’s two new Fishwife dupes will only set you back $2.49 per can. Considering groceries currently cost almost as much as a mortgage, this feels borderline illegal. Thank you, ALDI.
“Hell yes! Probably the same as Fishwife just different packaging,” one excited user wrote on Reddit. “The lower price makes it taste even better,” another shared. Agreed.
Part of what made Fishwife so famous wasn’t just the fish, it was the vibe. Bold illustrated tins, girl-dinner energy, and a genuinely elevated take on something as unglamorous as canned tuna turned into a status symbol for the pantry. ALDI’s Fremont Fish Market line seems to be borrowing the same playbook as Fishwife, and we are here for it.
Both flavors are available to shop in ALDI stores now, but considering how popular they are already, we anticipate them selling out quickly. So run to your local ALDI, stock up, and thank us for alerting you to this budget-savvy news later.
