Pretty thick compared to those.
Can have hot or cold too
Yes. Its thicker and actually tastes like chocolate. Made in Belgium too.
Brings back memories of Amsterdam coffee shops!
I can't remember anyone drinking coffee in those. Although those memories are a bit hazy to me now.
I have no memory of Amsterdam coffee shops.
Lol
Such a blur 😎
Showing up as only 4.49 when I click the link? Still won't buy, dutch chocolate powder isn't anywhere near as exe
Yeah I thought same. In store was 4.99
A bit expensive compared to the price in Amsterdam. It should be around $2-3 per ltr
Link for one shipped from Amsterdam cheaper please?
Don't understand why you compare the price in au to nl. Why don't you take into account the refrigerated air transport that got it into Oz, tarif, trucking, people to lug it and deliver it into stores?
Sounds terrible for the planet to be flying milk around.
I occasionally hold in my breath to limit my Co2 emissions.
@Gervais fanboy: mmm, I only pass gas in enclosed spaces with other people for the same reason……
@Gervais fanboy: Do everyone a favour and hold it indefinitely
@Rick Sanchez: Everyone?
Anyways, you are the less ballsy version of “I don’t like you so I hope you kill yourself”.
Stay mad lol.
Why don't you take into account the refrigerated air transport
It's UHT milk in an air tight Tetra Pak
It doesn't need refrigeration during transportation.
It also isn't sent with air freight.
trucking, people to lug it and deliver it into stores?
Those costs are also incurred to sell it in Amsterdam
I take your point that it doesn't need refrigeration nor air freight. Still, you are comparing price of something close to its place of origin vs exact opposite side of the globe.
Yes agree it's terrible for the environment. Not sure why they can't just make it here. We have very good milk too.
Still, you are comparing price of something close to its place of origin vs exact opposite side of the globe.
I'm not comparing costs only pointing out your overstating the freight costs and that there are similar distribution costs incurred in the Netherlands to Australia.

Sometimes it's actually cheaper to buy the same product on the other side of the globe compared to its place of origin.
Not sure why they can't just make it here
We make lots of chocolate milk in Australia, just not this particular one because it's made by a Netherland based company and the demand for them to stand up a processing facility here mustn't make financial sense.
@hippo2s: Not the same milk, cows in the Netherlands get to eat real grass and weed.
Never heard of this before but keen to try it, would this be in the refrigerated section?
No, it's in the middle section.
Yeah depends on your store, not every story layout is the same. I found it at my local aldi shop in a new special buys section of different snacks and stuff.
A lot in carnes hill NSW
No need for refrigeration, it is just in the middle section
cheers
A lot of preservatives, it means?
Nah, it's the high temperature they use that kills any lurgies
Not sold at Aldi camberwell
I got in Yangebup store (Perth) if that helps someone out
Amsterdam, waar ligt dat dan?
Lekker
It's Aldi. Only 1L, I expect 2L for that price in Aldi.
Not that many people want to buy chocolate milk 1L for $5 lol. That's why Chobani chocolate oat milk 1L is now $3.5 in Coles with oat too, not just chocolate milk (was $5).
Let's see how long 1L chocolate milk ($5 or more) can survive in Australia market in this high inflation, high living cost people say.
Agreed. It’s the cost of novelty though, not the product itself.
Just bought it, it's okay and for the price your better off with Chobani chocolate oat milk which has a thick consistency like this one but more flavourful imo. This tastes more like a thicker version of a cocopops cereal milk but not in a great way
Yeah same just tried it, it’s not bad , made in belgium I guess so no harm trying 😅 not sure if I would buy it all the time at $5 for 1L though 🥲
Now I’ll have to try this chobani milk 😆
None anywhere near me…
XXXImpulse bought some today. Glad its supposed to be good! wouldve got a couple if Id seen it here.
Now Colesworth need to sell it so I can grab some. Since Aldi isn't nationwide.
Harris farm used to sell chocomel so maybe there is a chance. Although, no idea why it was removed.
Colesworth sell the Sanitarium oat chocolate milk which is very good and close to chocomel, and on sale at Woolies for $2.60 a litre.
It was removed maybe because less sales. Proof that Australia population is small if compared with America. No wonder Clear said Aldi isn't nationwide. If Australia population is as big as America, maybe Aldi will be nationwide and Harris Farm still sell it. Australia is a big continent … Not small island like Singapore.
Sanitarium oat chocolate milk $2.6 a litre in Woolies is more reasonable price for 1L with oat.
is it better than the chocolate milk woolies and coels sell?
