From butterflied chicken to houmous and cheap yoghurt – here are the eight best products available at Aldi as voted by Aussie shoppers

Aldi customers have voted for their favorite purchases from the supermarket for 2023 – and now the winners have been revealed.

The retailer announced winners in eight categories in its annual People’s Picks awards.

More than 380,000 votes were cast by shoppers for their favorite food must-haves, from a roast chicken to feed the whole family, to a stain-removing laundry detergent and some budget lunchbox snacks.

There was a mix of returning winners and newcomers that made it to number one in all categories.

Taking out the BBQ Boss award was the Jindurra Station Porterhouse Steak 200g, which costs just $7 and is perfect for those looking for quality meat for their summer barbecue without breaking the bank.

The number one spot in the Life of the Party category went to Deli Originals Fresh Traditional Style Hommus $2.29 for the second year in a row.

The delicious and creamy dip was previously rated as the best on the market in terms of taste and value for money by consumer researchers at CHOICE.

Yogurt’s $2.29 Protein Yogurt was hailed as this year’s Good Health Hero because it’s not only high in protein, but 99 percent fat-free.

The Time Lord Award named the best purchase that is quick and easy to prepare and this year it went to Seasons Pride $4.99 Potato Gratin.

ALDI Australia shopping expert Kylie Warnke said the tasty sides have become a ‘staple’ in her fridge.

“Making potato gratin from scratch is a time-consuming process with lots of slicing and dicing and not to mention cleaning,” she said.

A new category in People’s Picks was The Socialite in which Ready, Set… Cook! RSPCA-approved boneless butterflied chicken at $9.99 per kg received the most votes

“These potato gratins spend a few minutes in the oven and get compliments every time they’re placed.”

Di-San Laundry 1 kg for $3.69 was voted the winner of the Partner in Grime category.

While this is the first time the brand’s Laundry Soaker has won a People’s Pick award, other Di-San products have previously made the top spot.

A new category in People’s Picks was The Socialite in which Ready, Set… Cook! RSPCA-approved boneless butterflied chicken at $9.99 per kg received the most votes.

“The Socialite category is for products that have been posted across social media, getting heart reactions, thumbs up and long comment threads across all platforms,” ​​Kylie explained.

Specially Selected 21-Day Australian Beef Fillet Steak (left) and Snackers Market Colby Cheese and Rice Crackers (right) were also among the winners

“It’s simple to cook, can be put straight on the barbie or oven without fuss and there’s always enough to feed the family.”

Specially selected 21 day Australian beef sirloin steak for $48.99 per kg was the winner of the other new category The Aussie Made Fave.

“This is what I get for that special occasion when I want that quality steak meal without the steakhouse price tag,” Kylie said.

“This delicious cut of meat doesn’t need much prep, I like to brush mine with olive oil with a little salt and pepper and barbeque it for a few minutes on each side.”

The Lunchbox Legend went to Snackers Market Colby Cheese and Rice Crackers for $3.99 for a four-pack.

“As a parent, I can totally understand the pain of pulling an untouched box out of your school bag at the end of the day, so this product has been voted a winner by parents and will surely never come home untouched!” Kylie said.
