Aldi’s popcorn is an organic simple bagged popcorn. It has a good crunch and even dusting of salt.

Cost: $1.99

SkinnyPop

Compared to SkinnyPop this is one of those where you cannot tell a difference – it tasted exactly the same. With such a simple product with few ingredients it’s very easy to replicate the taste.

Cost: $2.99

Alternative Option

It’s very easy to make your own and buying the popcorn kernels is much cheaper.

If you have never made homemade stove top popcorn, I recommend using the whrily pop just add oil/fat (we use Aldi’s Coconut oil) and the kernels. When it’s complete just sprinkle some fine table salt (the smaller grained salts seem to stick better to the corn than larger salt like sea salt or kosher).

At my local store this flavored sparkling water comes in Lemon, Lime and Grapefruit flavors. It cost $1.99 for an 8 pack. It contains no sugar or sodium and just a hit of natural flavor. The ingredients listed are simply carbonated water and natural flavors.

Cost per can: $0.24

LaCroix

LaCroix is the drink that everyone is most familiar with and it comes in a wide variety of flavors, including the same three that Aldi sells. This regularly sells for $3.99 for an 8 pack and you can typically find sales with it costing $2.99.

Cost per can: $0.37 – $0.50

Taste

For me, I cannot tell a difference in taste. This is a no-brainer, buy the Aldi brand if you like LaCroix and you will not be disappointed. Only buy LaCroix if you want more flavor options.
