I googled to find out what the best meal replacement shakes are and canstar strongly recommended Aldi's one. The trouble with Aldi is that you can never be sure you can get what you want there. I just got back from Aldi and sure enough.. nope no sign of them. If I did manage to get some and wanted to use them regularly there'd be a chance they just wouldn't have them the next time I needed some. I'm really really underwhelmed by Aldi in general so this didn't help. I did grab a bag of coffee beans though.

Meanwhile.. I've invited someone over for dinner next week. Any suggestions on what I should cook? As far as I know there aren't any special dietary requirements but I might actually double check on that.

Their shakes tend to be around with the soap. I found them pretty underwhelming and with a funky after-taste.

Thanks, that makes me feel better about them not having any. I'll keep researching. Canstar has manshake pretty far down the list which I found surprising because it seems fine. Keen to find out what better ones there are though.
