Aldi’s air fryer also proved popular.

It wasn’t long ago Aldi lovers went crazy for the discount store’s $149 air fryer, and eagle-eyed cooks spotted an exciting detail that comes with the product.

Posting in Aldi Facebook groups, shoppers pointed out the appliance’s “amazing” extra trick.

“OMG!!! The Aldi Air Fryer also dehydrates no more wasting herbs,” one person wrote in the Aldi Mums Facebook group.

Others used the air fryer to dehydrate fruit, turning it into “great little healthy snack treat food”, one person commented.

“I cut thin pieces (about) 2-3mm! Then brushed lightly with lemon juice (bottle) to stop browning! Then did them at 70 degrees for 6 hours,” a commented explained.

It appears Aldi can do no wrong.
