"The humble grocery store known as Aldi is home to a number of sought-after deals on kitchen items, fresh produce, frozen feasts, and much more. When it comes to cheese, however, Redditors vehemently advise against picking up a pre-sliced package from its deli. White its fresh cheese selection is rather impressive, the sliced cheese is noted as being too thin, poorly packaged, prone to molding, and generally not worthwhile."
"Pre-sliced deli cheese stands among a handful of Aldi products to avoid buying, according to Reddit, and with good reason. Of the packaging, users say, "There's no way the sliced cheese packaging is cheaper than other options. It's just a terrible design that they probably already committed to and was too late once they realized it sucked." Others note that they opt to rehome the cheese in a more secure Ziploc bag rather than risking the cheese molding too quickly in its Aldi packaging."
"It's wisest to stick to Aldi's block cheeses, curds, and other specialty selections rather than waste money on its pre-sliced deli offerings. If you want to make a grilled cheese sandwich or melt a slice of sharp cheddar over a slice of freshly baked apple pie, with so many popular cheese brands to choose from, you'll have a better time sourcing your slices elsewhere."
Aldi offers sought-after deals on kitchen items, fresh produce, frozen foods, and a notable fresh cheese selection. Pre-sliced deli cheese at Aldi is criticized for slices that are too thin, poor packaging, and a tendency to mold quickly. Shoppers report rehoming slices into Ziploc bags to prevent premature molding. Some users describe the appearance and flavor of the pre-sliced cheddar as not resembling real cheese. Specialty cheeses, blocks, and curds at Aldi are considered better buys and allow consumers to slice for melting, cooking, or charcuterie needs. Sourcing slices from other popular brands is recommended for melting or sandwiches.
