    You can not compare the two ALDI's if they are from two different countries as they nowadays cater a lot for the tastes of the countries they are in. If you really want to compare ALDI Nord with ALDI Sued then you'll have to go to Germany. Go to a ALDI on mainland Europe you won't find, as an example, things like pork pies and sausage rolls to name just two. I was recently in Germany and popped into Lidl and a heck of a lot they were selling was different to what they sell in the UK

Of course there are differences simply for the fact that the Dutch have different tastes to the Brits. The very basic goods are exactly the same in both Nord and Sued, in the UK, Germany, France The Netherlands etc but there are quite a few differences between the countries. And as I previously mentioned Germany, both chains have the same products produced by the same companies but there are also big differences between the two simply because of the regional different tastes. ALDI Sued wouldn't sell some breads or sausages two name jyst two that ALDI Nord is selling and vice a versa.

    Lidl and Aldi are roughly similar in the Netherlands. They are both considered to be "cheap" supermarkets. Most other supermarkets in the Netherlands are just slightly expensive. Compared to the UK supermarkets in the Netherlands are well stocked and offer a wide range of products, especially in the food sections. Almost all supermarkets offer the named brands and their own. Obviously their own line of products is normally cheaper. And no silly US overly strict rules about purchasing and identifying yourself.
