I was surprised to see the price of my favorite brand of free range eggs from Manning Valley selling at double their normal price. Coles is slowly taking out many great free range and organic brands and replacing them with their own crappy tasteless crap brands. ... Read more

Today I was shopping in my local Coles supermarket and I thought I would buy some canned tuna since it has been some time since I had purchased some. It was a confusing experience since most tuna is now mixed with other ingredients to pimp it up.

I really doubt coffee is actually bad for you and maybe in small doses a little can offer some health benefits. It’s only when we have a number of strong coffees throughout the day that we might be putting too much stress on our bodies with a high amount of caffeine. ... Read more

Aldi for Organic Food

It’s great to see plenty of Australian organic foods available at the Aldi supermarkets in Australia. You can now find everything from organic yogurt to organic pasta on display at most Aldi stores. I was even able to find a good quality organic ice cream at one Aldi store but I have not seen it at all of them. Support these supermarkets that stock organic foods and let them know you appreciate them stocking organic foods at affordable prices too. Aldi also offer a good range of local free range produce like chickens and eggs. ... Read more

Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Posted by admin under Product Reviews
No Comments
Aldi also offer some products that are not officially organic but are still healthily like their Extra Virgin Olive Oil that is below $7 for a 1 litre bottle. It has quite an olive smell to it but it is still Extra Virgin Olive Oil and at that price who cares. You may want to use another less aromatic Extra Virgin Olive Oil in your cooking where the flavour is easily detected but for many common uses it can be a great general oil to use. ... Read more
