ALDI shoppers have been left fuming after a string of popular snacks and veggies were discontinued.
Some disgruntled customers complained that their lunches had been ruined by the bargain supermarket chain.

One customer called Sean, took to social media to ask Aldi why cherry and plum tomatoes had been missing from his local store the past few weeks.
Sean – who shops at the Moxley branch in the West Midlands – was already disappointed that black tins of complimints had been discontinued.
And he was left even more shocked after Aldi’s update on cherry and plum tomatoes.
Replying to Sean, the firm’s official Twitter account delivered the bad news.
The post read: “Thanks again Sean, we can confirm that these products has now been discontinued from our everyday range in your region. So sorry for this!”
A shocked Sean replied: “The West Midlands no longer gets miniature tomatoes??
“How am I supposed to fit salad tomatoes in my lunchbox??”
It comes after other gutted shoppers took to social media to express their disappointment when Aldi dropped a popular candy.
How can I save money on my Aldi shop?
If you’re an Aldi regular, you’ll want to employ a few money-saving tips to slash your bill.
Of course, the discount grocer is famous for its middle aisle, where shoppers can pick up everything from garden furniture and gym equipment to kitchen appliances and clothes.
To get the best bargains, you need to know when the Specialbuy items will be on sale.
You can find new stock in Aldi’s middle aisle on Thursdays and Sundays, so you’ll get your pick of the products if you head to the store then.
But every two weeks, Aldi also picks six of its favourites to offer shoppers fruit and veg at low prices.
The prices don’t change over the two weeks that the offer is live so really you can cash in at any time – though what’s on offer will change every fortnight.
But if you want to be sure to get the best of the bunch, then heading to the store at the start of the week to pick the freshest items won’t hurt.
Yellow stickers are the key to a successful shop for most customers, and Aldi has its own version of labelled bargains too.
