I'm fairly restricted in what I can eat due to a litany of food intolerances, and it's a bit much to expect Aldi to cater to people like me. I was also dismayed to see that a lot of their fruit and veg is pre-packed in plastic. <BR/><BR/>Australia has two main supermarkets that dominate the grocery and fresh food sector, which does result in lower prices, but I have recently decided not to go to them after learning that their low prices are the partly the result of dodgy and unfair business practices. Low prices are great, but I don't want I'd rather pay more if it means the small business and farmers that supply the supermarkets don't suffer for it. <BR/><BR/>But man, doing a full grocery shop elsewhere isn't easy, especially without a car, and if you want to buy products that are not only reasonably priced, but also made/grown in your own country, good for the environment and suitable for a restricted diet.<BR/><BR/>But I'll keep trying!Jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08031245139089119281noreply@blogger.com
