Thought this would be a good thread for those looking for alternative cereal options that aren't as expensive as the brand name options. As well as those that don't.
I'll start: I think the Aldi knockoff Weet-Bix clones are very good, but the Coles ones don't really pass the test (more of a flaky texture and a different taste)
Colesworth/Aldi Quick Oats, just as tasty as the name brands that come in expensive sachets but at a fraction of the price.
you only buys Uncle Toby's oats when its on sale
There are certain things I wont buy other than original brand but the notable exceptions are
- Aldi wheat-biscuits are good
non cereal
- Aldi baked beans
- Aldi spaghetti
- Aldi mettwhurst
are also my favorites
Woolies Rainbow Rings and pretty much most knock off Froot Loops are amazing.
Aldi version of crunchy nut cornflakes are good, as are their Choco Rice (coco pops knock off).
Woolies honey puffs
Aus made too
.
I reckon the Aldi granola Pecan & maple is good. As is the Cranberry & Almond.
Aldi rice bubbles are just as good and a hell of lot cheaper.
Aldi powergrain (Nutri-Grain) is better than the real deal. A bit more malty.
Aldi balance right (just right) is just as good as the real deal.
Aldi corn flakes are not as good as the real deal.
