As part of our cost of living series, we tried 'value' cereal from supermarkets 👇
As prices continue to rise for pretty much everything, we've been testing whether 'value' supermarket essential items are really any different to the more expensive brands.
There's nothing like saving a bit of money on your weekly shop. Even if it ends up being a couple of quid saved, every little helps when we're in the midst of a cost of living crisis. Here's what we found: The shelves were stocked to the brim with Aldi's own brand cereals, so much so that it made it hard to choose. After spending a good five minutes panicking over which one to try, I settled on Aldi's Harvest Moon Crisp Rice - with a dupe of Rice Krispies you can't go wrong, right?
I'm quite an obsessive person and will usually pick the same brand and type of cereal for weeks and weeks on end, before growing tired of it and moving on to a new favourite. Currently, I'm on a Strawberry Crisp phase - it comes in a disappointingly small box and doesn't last long in my house - so I was keen to try a more cost-effective cereal offering.
Asda's own Bran Flakes are completely delicious. They taste just as good as more expensive brands and the generous box size means they'll last a long time, too.
