Aldi's Hash Brown Waffles proved a huge hit with customers when McDonald's axed its mini waffles back in 2023.
The breakfast favourite item meant you got three waffles per pack, but it was removed from the menu to the disappointment of diners.
Earlier in the year shoppers were raving about Aldi's large bags of Mega Puffs, which were on sale in two different flavours - fiery hot and wickedly cheesy.
The 130g share bags of corn puffs are suitable for vegetarians and are baked, not fried.
New in Aldi
They are similar in appearance to Wotsits - so if you’re a fan of melt-in-the-middle crisps, then you’ll need to give these a try.
As well as this, we previously saw bargain hunters rave about a new passion fruit martini cocktail that has landed on shelves.
The Infusionist buy also comes in a Piña Colada flavour - both of which are ready-to-pour cocktails, saving shoppers 21% per bottle compared to Funkin Cocktails.
The exotic tipple costs £7.49 for a 70cl bottle.
Additionally, previously shoppers raced to buy Aldi's authentic Jamaican Patties which sold out in just 48 hours.

The beef patty snack was on sale for just 99p and was made by a father-son duo from Peckham, London, who run their own wholesale bakery, Flake Bake.
In a Facebook post, they wrote: "After the huge success of our Jamaican beef patty selling out in less than 48 hours at ALDI’s nationwide, we are proud to announce that ALDI has 4x their order to 100,000 patties!"

WHEN it comes to shopping at Aldi, the best time to do so depends on what you want to buy.
For reduced items - when shops open
Red sticker items are rare at Aldi's 830 UK stores, but the supermarket says that none of its food goes to waste so there are some to be found - if you're quick.
A spokesman for the supermarket said: "All items are reduced to 50 per cent of the recommend sales price before stores open on their best before or use by dates."

Opening times vary by shop but a majority open from 7am or 8am. You can find your nearest store's times by using the supermarket's

Specialbuys are Aldi's weekly collection of items that it doesn't normally sell, which can range from pizza ovens to power tools.
New stock comes into stores every Thursday and Sunday, so naturally, these are the best days to visit for the best one-off special deals.
For an even better chance of bagging the best items, head there for your local store's opening time.
You don't have to head into stores to bag a Specialbuy, though.
They also go on sale online, usually at midnight on Thursday and Sunday, and .
As long as you spend at least £25, you'll get the items delivered for free.
