Happy meals: Aldi stores in Gedling launch their own versions of McDonald’s favourites – and they’re a lot cheaper

Bookmark

Budget supermarket chain Aldi has this week launched a new range inspired by McDonald’s favourites into stores across Gedling borough.

Just as McDonald’s has the announced the anticipated return of its sell-out McSpicy Chicken Burger, Aldi is selling a near identical product for a fraction of the price. Designed to fire up tastebuds, their tantalisingly tasty Roosters Gastro Flamin’ Hot Chicken Burger is a steal at £2.99. They contain two chicken breasts, tenderly spiced with herbs and a layer of crispy golden coating. Set to have McSpicy fans unable to spot the difference, this spicy chicken sensation can be enjoyed from the comforts of the home at a fraction of the price. Available in-store now. 

For even more McLoving, Aldi has also launched a brand new on-the-go wrap range to rival fast food giant McDonald’s – at a whopping 40% cheaper!    

Lovers of the Big Arches can avoid a trip to the drive-thru by stocking up on Aldi’s three new wraps. Meat lovers will adore the BBQ Chicken and Bacon Wrap (£1.95, 190g) which contains deliciously juicy pieces of seasoned chicken goujons, encased in a tangy BBQ sauce – flecked with tasty pepper and onion pieces.

The Piri Piri Chicken Wrap is filled with succulent pieces of chicken, coated in a mild chilli sauce and doused in a creamy garlic yoghurt.

And finally, a plant-based option sure to make veg lovers hap-pea, the Spicy Veggie Wrap (£1.95, 194g) boasts delightful Mexican falafel pieces and warming chipotle spice. Smoky and sweet tomato salsa is complemented with a subtle chilli jam kick for the ultimate veg-tastic treat!  

And last but not feast, McDonalds fans may be still missing the Chicken Big Mac, but Aldi has come to the rescue, with a version of this sell-out treat at a whopping 51% less than the Golden Arches version.The equally tasty Aldi version of this crispy chicken delight has all the tasty ingredients to create the iconic stack- at just £1.97 a burger.
