Autumn has arrived, and I’ll admit I’d love a longer look at the lineup Aldi has in store this month. There are plenty of items to cover and time is tight! Once we dive into Aldi’s weekly introductions, we’ll have more room to explore in depth. Don’t worry about the wild ride I just took you on; we’re simply dipping our toes into the array of tasty goodies Aldi is rolling out this month. We’ll get into the nitty-gritty a bit later, so stay tuned!
Benton’s Soft Baked Cookies: Pumpkin Spice, Apple Crisp, or Maple Pecan (9/2; $2.99)
The early days of September at Aldi showcase a bounty of autumn flavors. In this quick preview, I’m highlighting something genuinely fun to anticipate: Benton’s soft-baked cookies arriving in three flavors—pumpkin spice, apple crisp, and maple pecan. Each bag, about the size of a Tate’s bag, will run $2.99, so it’s easy to snag all three and do a little taste-test mini-sampler.
Specially Selected Fall Harvest Mac & Cheese (9/2; $2.99)
This is a playful way to sneak more fruit into your meals. Aldi is rolling out a festive Fall Harvest mac and cheese this season. The sauce hides pumpkin and butternut squash alongside cheddar, giving a seasonal twist. And yes, squash is technically a fruit, even if some folks treat it as a vegetable in practice.
Corned Beef Reuben Bites (9/9; $7.99)
Impressive. My Irish forebears would probably grin at these corned beef Reuben bites Aldi is launching this September. They feature corned beef, sauerkraut, and provolone cheese encased in a crisp, golden crust, and the package includes a dipping sauce for a complete, ready-to-enjoy snack.
Kirkwood Red Bag Chicken: Sweet Heat Chicken Fillets (9/23; $8.99)
Aldi’s red-bag chicken—an homage to Chick-Fil-A’s popular items—gets a new variant this month. Look for Sweet Heat chicken fillets at $8.99 per bag, a price point that closely matches a single CFA sandwich, making it a compelling substitute for fans of the original.
Barissimo Dessert Drizzle: Blueberry, Strawberry or Peach & Mango (9/30; $4.49)
whimsy is back on the dessert front with Aldi’s latest drizzle. This Barissimo creation will be available in three flavors—Blueberry, Strawberry, or Peach & Mango—for $4.49. It’s perfect for topping ice cream, upgrading gourmet coffees, or simply pouring straight from the bottle for a quick sweet fix!
Mama Cozzi’s Pizza Snacks: Cheeseburger or Taco Style (9/30; $4.99)
Mama Cozzi’s continues to impress. At the end of September, she’s introducing cheeseburger- and taco-style pizza “snacks” (essentially rolled pizzas) to Aldi. They arrive just in time for back-to-school. Keep a few on hand for kids who need a snack while they study or for an easy dinner option when time is tight.
