Aldi Superfan Shares His Must-Have Grocery Items

One local man’s devotion to Aldi has turned into a weekly shopping ritual. For the past decade, 38-year-old Nathan Shackelford has made Aldi his go-to grocery store, drawn by the promise of high-quality products at affordable prices. He was kind enough to share his top nine Aldi picks:

  • Little Salad Bar Italian Salad Kit: Perfect for a quick lunch or side dish, this pre-mixed salad provides a convenient and tasty base for any meal.
  • Appleton Farms Thick-Sliced Bacon: Shackelford claims this bacon rivals name-brand competitors, praising its thickness, smoky flavor, and ability to crisp up perfectly.
  • Clancy’s Pork Rinds: These crunchy and salty snacks are not only keto-friendly but can also be transformed into pork rind breadcrumbs with a food processor.
  • Simply Nature Organic Half-and-Half: This rich and smooth half-and-half elevates Shackelford’s morning coffee and boasts a lower price point than similar organic options.
  • Fresh Coho Salmon: Whenever it’s in stock, Shackelford snags a package of this fresh, delicious salmon, noting its versatility for pan-searing or baking.
  • Specially Selected Manchego Cheese: This nutty and tangy cheese pairs well with fruit and crackers and makes a great addition to a charcuterie board.
  • Tuscan Garden Sliced Jalapeño Peppers: A pantry staple for Shackelford, these crisp and flavorful jalapeños add a kick to tacos, nachos, and other dishes.
  • Paramount Citrus Lemons: A versatile citrus fruit, these lemons are perfect for adding to water, smoothies, or various recipes.
  • Choceur Chocolate Bars: Considered a hidden gem, these creamy and rich chocolate bars offer a delightful sweet treat.
