For the second straight year, Aldi has tapped into its rabid superfan base, surveying shoppers for their opinions on what Aldi products they like best. On Tuesday, September 15, 2020, Aldi announced the winners of this year’s survey, conducted with over 177,000 shoppers. Aldi dropped the news on the same day it delivered boxes of some of the goods to select social media influencers, superfans, and media types, including us.
Here’s Aldi’s full list, along with links to any products we’ve reviewed or written about ourselves. Items with an asterisk were also 2019 winners. (We also run our own annual Aldi awards, which you can read about here.)
