“Recently bought a pack of shortbread and when I opened the box I couldn’t believe my eyes. The weight of the biscuits is correct, but the customer is being misled,” she wrote angrily on Aldi’s Facebook page.
She also posted a photo of the product. In fact, the packaging is only filled with half of the biscuits. “Twice as many biscuits could easily have fit into this deceptive packaging,” the woman continues.

She ends her post with: “Too bad, Aldi. So much plastic waste for so few biscuits.” And with her complaint she seems to have achieved something. Because the company reports under your contribution.
An Aldi worker explained that “wherever possible we reduce packaging waste and choose recyclable materials. However, to a certain extent, packaging is unavoidable for hygienic and transport reasons.”
