About this episode

Leanne Ward and Susie Burrell discuss their favorite Aldi products and the inaccuracies of AI diet plans regarding calorie counts.

Leanne Ward and Susie Burrell share their personal Aldi favourites and the specific products they recommend to clients, from protein yogurt and low-carb bread to fresh produce and honest indulgences. Plus: a 2025 study reveals AI diet plans underestimate calories by up to 600 and protein by 20 grams, the Mission Carb Balance wrap gets a zero out of ten, and the creatine and heat question answered for anyone adding it to porridge or baked oats.
