What’s more, Steven Docherty got his kids to blind taste test the budget supermarket’s £1.49 Nutoka against the new £1.15 Everyday Essentials Chocolate Hazelnut Spread.
The little ones all preferred the cheaper version.
He took to Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK to share the Aldi find.
People jumped into the comments to affirm that they prefer Nutoka to Nutella and are now keen to try the even cheaper alternative.
“Now that's interesting because I prefer Nutoka to Nutella,” one said.

“I’ve even brought their version of Biscoff spread and that’s great too.”
What’s more, Steven shared a picture of the £1.15 spread showing that it’s Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) certified.
This means that any palm oil in the product is sustainably sourced and therefore better for the environment.
However, die-hard Nutella fans weren’t convinced by the Aldi alternative.
“Nothing can compare with Nutella but well worth a go if cheaper,” one mum said.
“My kids always knew if it wasn’t Nutella.”
“Nutella is the one brand that no one can compare to,” someone else penned.
“I’ve never tasted any chocolate spread that is anywhere close to it.”
