Doritos are so bad they have to put all those nasty high calorie seasonings on them. Its a fraud
-
Have you guys tried Doritos toasted corn flavored chips. They are just plain tortilla chips. Don't be fooled. They don't have toasted corn seasoning on them.
-
what about if you're really far from some corn and maybe you don't have you contacts in or something and then you put them in or get closer to the corn and you realize that they are those vomit inducing mini corns that come in certain asian dishes. oh crap, just tell me you don't want to punch somebody if that happens.
-
Aldi has the best knockoff products. Were they Aldi doritos?

no. kroger/dillons/etc.
i mean, i ate them and all but man. why just why, ya know? put your focus somewhere else if you're going to halfass it that bad kroger/dillons/etc.
-
Aldi has the best knockoff products. Were they Aldi doritos?
yes and its not even close.. there hummus to die for! literally I would kill for it
-
Salt looks like sugar. ever put salt on your cheerios when you intended to put sugar? If not, let me tell you it is the worst.
-
bread and butter pickles vs dill. I mean, why?
really this is the best though saul. there is no reason other than the fact that some guy a hundred years ago named joseph bread teamed up with his cousin alfred butter and they together decided to make an inferior pickle and push it on the public. aside from that i mean no, just no. it makes no sense.
-
me when i go home - mom, where are the hot dog buns?
mom - we don't have any, just use the bread!
me - MOM! :curse:
-

love the crap out of everything at aldi's. lots of good fruits and vegetables, too.
speaking about doritos, i love the baked doritos. tasty and not going to make you as fat.

The worst thing in the world is when your wife tells you that she bought pop tarts at the store and you get super excited and think about it all night and then the next morning you go to the cabinet and it turns out that your wife thinks Toastems are Pop Tarts and what's worse is that she bought the Brown Sugar Cinnamon kind because she knows you love that kind but what she doesn't know is that while that is the best kind of Pop Tart it is the worst kind of Toastem.

the aldi's knock-off honey nut cheerios are far superior to regular honey nut cheerios.

True story, I swear it. I just pounded out an entire box of Brown Sugar and Cinnamon Frosted Toaster Pastries. Literally. The whole box. But luckily we saw that Pop-Tarts were on sale at Target for $2 a box. Even got the S'mores kind!
-

Yeah, so are their frosted mini wheats and light popcorn.

One time my my wife forgot to take her bags to Aldi's and so when she got back the whole car was just filled with food so I had to just pick up like two pieces of food at a time and take them inside. It took forever.

Daris- it comes down to cost. Doritos has stuff in there seasoning blend that costs more. Generic brands leave these things out so that the product costs less.
Good Dorito article:
http://www.seriouseats.com/2012/06/science-of-chips-ingredients-msg-why-nacho-cheese-doritos-taste-like-heaven.html?ref=search
summary: glutamic acid is where it's at when it comes to doritos.
ingredients rich in glutamic acid, the molecules that provide the savory quality known as umami.
There are a few natural umami bombs in there, namely Romano cheese, cheddar cheese, and tomato chowder. Slightly less potent (umami grenades?), though still packing their own glutamate punch, are onion chowder, garlic chowder, and the various forms of whey. If Frito-Lay were to stop right there they'd probably have a pretty good chip on their hands. But they aren't interested in making a pretty good chip; they're crafting Doritos.
To reinforce these sources of naturally occurring glutamic acid, they go for the nuclear option: pure monosodium glutamate (MSG), the sodium salt form of glutamate (I hope that by this point Serious Eaters are aware that MSG's reputation in the '60s and 70s for making Chinese restaurant-goers sick is fully undeserved). You may be thinking that since a little MSG goes a pretty long way to upping the umami factor, Frito-Lay probably stops the onslaught there, right? Wrong. The last two ingredients on the list (meaning that they appear in the smallest quantities) are arguably the most important: the free nucleotides disodium inosinate (IMP) and disodium guanylate (GMP).
Both IMP and GMP are what professional flavorists refer to as flavor potentiators—which just sounds awesome. To continue our arms race analogy, IMP and GMP are the heat-seeking ballistic missiles of the group. They fly in first, target taste receptors for umami and physically alter them, allowing the glutamate bombs better access (to destroy your mouth with flavor!). Put another way, with these flavor potentiators (YES!) in the mix, our perception of glutamates is amplified up to 30 times.

Hyvee Sun Chips knockoffs are the worst. woof.

Trader Joes oatmeal is fantastic

Trader Joes oatmeal is fantastic
Mrs.Hamburglar recently started shopping at Aldi. It's fantastic. The apples she brings home there there are far better than the regular grocery store.
Little known fact: Trader Joes is owned by Aldi.

Cereal is a bag is much worse than the cereal in a box.
Did you know that when you open a box of cereal, the cereal is actually sitting inside of....a bag????!!!!?? hemmy stop paying extra bro. The Malt o Meal bag cereals are better than the boxed stuff. Pretty sure there has been a cereal thread debating this.
-
Hyvee brand stuff is good, some of Krogers brand is ok. If it's an ingredient that is going into a dish I'll buy it non-name brand, but if it's something I'm going to eat straight like cereal, cheese or deli meat, I'm buying the high end brands.
