Gather customer reviews (are they good?)
We personally have not tried any of the Aldi gluten-free items, but we have heard amazing things from members of the Aisle of Shame Facebook community. Here are some of the reviews:
“Omg Y’all! Thanks to this group, I learned about the existence liveGFree General Tso’s chicken. I’m celiac and was shocked that something like that existed. Finally managed to snag a bag and had it tonight. Soooooo amazing. And my non-celiac husband loved it too. I’ll be stocking the freezer!” source
Does Aldi Have A Gluten-Free Section?
Aldi does not have a dedicated gluten-free section in its stores. Occasionally you will find Special Buys (Aldi Finds) bundled together on an endcap, but that is just for products available for a limited time.
Aldi gluten-free products will be found with their regular, non-gluten-gree counterparts. For instance, the gluten-free brownie mix will be in the same aisle as all the other baking products and mixes. You can recognize an item as gluten-free if the packaging has a light blue background with the brand name liveGfree.
Is Aldi Discontinuing Gluten-Free?
No! Aldi is not discontinuing their gluten-free products or the liveGfree brand.
In fact, Aldi is bringing even more gluten-free products to their stores. May is Celiac Awareness Month and you’ll often find additional gluten-free items in store (It’s a great time to stock up on your favorite gluten-free Aldi Finds!).
Does Aldi stock gluten-free products?
Yep! Aldi stocks 17 core gluten-free products year-round, with additional gluten-free items available seasonally as Aldi Finds.
