00:00Today I want to talk to you about this. It is the Dairy Fine Munch Mix from Aldi. Now
00:14last year, Marks and Spencer's brought out a tin which was full of the goodies for Christmas.
00:19I think it was called a very jolly, very jelly mix. Looks incredibly similar to that, believe
00:25it or not. I got one last year and it was a tenner, it's still a tenner. This one is
00:32£4.99 from Aldi. They do two different versions. One of them is this, which has got a mixture
00:39of coloured multi-usables, it's got salted pretzels, it's got some peanut brittle kind
00:45of thing in there, and it's got their version of Butterkist popcorn in it. The one from
00:53Marks and Spencer's that I had last year did have some more like Smarties kind of thing
00:59and it had some more jelly sweets. Now the other version of this has got some more jelly
01:04sweets in, but I wanted to try this and I wanted to show you what it was like. So remember
01:09£4.99, it comes in quite a pretty tin which has got like embossed kind of drawings down
01:17the side of it. So for now it's 300 grams.
01:29So as you can see it comes wrapped up in this bag, same as the Marks and Spencer's one,
01:33but I just felt I got more in this Aldi one. And this is what it looks like when it's poured
01:38out. The tin's quite full. You've got a real mixture there of the pretzels and the popcorn
01:44and the nuts and the balls. I would say that the red Rudolph balls, they look really pretty,
01:50but you don't get that many of them. I really like this. I think at £4.99 it's much better
01:55value than the Marks and Spencer's one. I'm sorry. It probably could do with just a bit
02:00more colour, some jelly sweets in there. You can add that yourself, I guess. But for watching
02:06a Christmas film with the family past that round, I thought that was fantastic. I would
02:11highly recommend it. My husband seemed to think that at £4.99 it was a bit expensive
02:17for what it was, but I disagree. I think it was okay. My son thought it was a bit salty.
02:21I didn't. That's just personal preference. I would highly recommend you going to Aldi
02:26and checking these out.
