ALDI has released its top 10 lunch box snacks of 2025

If you haven't tried their Tiny Teddy dupe, you're missing out. 

One of ALDI’s biggest assets is that you can find just about anything by just ducking into your local store - and so much of it is good.

Now, fans of the supermarket are being asked to vote for the best of the best with the return of The People’s Picks - with one category in particular having Aussie parents’ names all over it.

They’re back!

It’s official, The People’s Picks are back, allowing ALDI devotees to curate their ultimate hauls, choosing their favourites across eight Good Different categories.

“The People’s Picks Awards are not only for seasoned ALDI shoppers, it’s like a ‘cheat sheet’ for new customers to ALDI’s most amazing products. These awards are a celebration of our ALDI community’s top picks, and every vote helps uncover the standout stars of our exclusive 1,800 core range of products,” said ALDI Australia’s Shopping Expert, Kylie Warnke.

This year’s categories include The Best Newcomer, The BBQ Boss, and The Socialite, all of which (especially the latter) include a shortlist of some of ALDI’s bestselling and most viral products.

“This year, it’s been great to already see so many of our new shortlisted products celebrated on social, and now they’ll be going toe-to-toe with some of my long-time favourites like the Urban Eats Greek Spinach & Cheese Spanakopita,” Warnke said.

“Thanks to our customers, the best-kept secrets don’t stay secret for long!”

Which snack rules your lunch box?

But, one of this year’s most exciting categories is The Lunchbox Legend, featuring the best of the best of school snacks, that everybody wants to steal.

The shortlist includes everything from sweet to savoury and sour - perfect for every age and taste buds - and they're all under $3.99.

First up, we have the Belmont Biscuit Co. Choc Chip Teddy Tots - ALDI’s iconic (and just as good) Tiny Teddy Dupe.

If you're a fan of more savoury snacks, you can put the Sprinters Popcorn Multipack or Damora Thin & Crispy Rice Crackers on the top of your list. There are also plenty of cheesy options - in the best possible way - like the Snackers Market Tasty Cheese & Water Crackers, Snackers Market Gouda Cheese Bites, or Snackers Market Tasty Cheese & Pretzels.

Also on the list are the Westcliffe Tropical Drink, Hillcrest Fruity Filled Bars, Hillcrest Oat Bars, and the Brooklea No Added Sugar Yogurt Pouch. Yum!

So… how can I get involved?

Last year, The People’s Picks saw over a whopping 312 000 votes from Aussies who wanted their say in which buy would take home the prize, and thankfully, there’s still some time to participate.

Voting is open now and will close at 11:59pm 30 July 2025. Voters will also automatically go into the draw to win a share of $10,000 worth of ALDI gift cards by simply submitting their top picks in the eight categories.

Head to voting.aldi.com.au to submit your picks, or wait until August, when all will be revealed!
