    “Only place I can think of who have good prices for vegetables is that German supermarket Aldi.
    Like the veg box stuff proclaims "Exclude things you dont want", you can do that at Aldi too by not putting the stuff you dont want into your trolley. Another good thing about Aldis veg is you dont have to spend a minimum of ten pounds like you have to with Mr Abels veg.
    One thing you dont get at Aldi though is a free weeks recipe card.”

    “Can we have more foreign veg in the stores please, the rubbish our farmers produce and price is just outstandingly shocking.”
