Oh god, i miss the European style mocha yogurt. It was so indulgent and a little heathy ish.

I lost 20 lbs. eating it as part of my new diet.

I lost 20lbs when they discontinued the soy cherry chocolate chunk ice cream.

I miss the frozen chocolate cake/torte with the shiny frosting. We bought it regularly for a decade.

Will Alessi work for the white balsamic vinegar? It seems to be available at Vitacost online.

Vitacost belongs to Kroger. During the pandemic we were able to buy normal grocery store things from Vitacost, so you can probably find a few other things to ship with it.

We like Alessi Raspberry vinegar and Paul Newman's regular Balsamic and Lite Balsamic if that helps you triangulate tastes.

I too miss the white balsamic vinegar! I too would stock up on it! I lasted 6 months beyond the last time i saw a bottle in a store due to my stock piling.

I asked management and it's due to the inability to get a lower price on an item. They also used to have a good California olive oil that is no longer around(was profiled in consumer reports)

Have you tried the Republic of Tea version?

I’m still sad about something they stopped carrying like a dozen years ago - blue jalapeño cornbread mix

I use it all the time and would buy multiple bottles for fear of running out. I use it in all salad dressings, all marinades it’s basically the only vinegar I use besides regular balsamic. It’s so good.

I wonder if Aldi has any versions of the discontinued products?

Every day. The one I use is not from TJ.

They discontinued their only non-disgusting marinara sauce - the one in a big can.

Please bring it back!

You can submit a request on their website. If they get enough requests they sometimes bring things back.

I’m so sick of them discontinuing long running products. I cannot shop there exclusively (I hate their meat products) and I don’t buy any frozen food really (like their mini cones) but they have some great bread options, dairy and condiments. Three of my all time favorite items have been discontinued in as many years with no real alternative offered and one of them, their white balsamic vinegar was offered for years and I cannot find an alternative. I use this on everything, it is the best vinegar ever. Today my cinnamon bread is no longer available (they offered some crappy alternative) and the pasta sauce my children LOvE is gone for good (tomato pesto) ugh. This along with many others….its like a crap shoot if I’ll be able to find what I want or not. I hate it.
