ALDI has discontinued a popular breakfast must-have and shoppers are not happy.
Shoppers at the German discounter were left devastated after they noticed its popular Very Berry Muesli has been missing from supermarket shelves.
The morning dish, which comes with rolled oats, nuts, seeds, and dried fruits such as berries, was a hit with customers and was sold for around £1.99
Eagle-eyed customers took to social media to find out where the product had gone.
Writing on Facebook, one user said: “Have they stopped the best [sic] berry muesli? Not seen it since before Christmas.”
Others were quick to chime in and share their experiences.
One wrote: “More then likely it’s been discontinued.”
A quick scan on the Aldi website also shows the item is no longer available to buy and is listed as out of stock.
A representative for Aldi confirmed to The Sun that the product was no more.
They said: “We continually review our range of products to make sure we’re meeting the needs of Aldi shoppers.”
Shoppers looking for an alternative could shop Aldi’s Very Berry Granola.
Or they could try Tesco‘s Fruit Muesli for £2.75.

Shoppers were left gutted after Aldi discontinued one of its popular bakery items.
The Village Bakery Chilli Cheese Topped Rolls had been described by customers as “lush” – but they will no longer be available on shelves.
A post on the Aldi UK Shoppers Facebook group said: “Apparently discontinued has anyone seen these in other supermarkets?”

The rolls came in a pack of four and were topped with a full slice of chilli cheddar cheese.
They had been sold for £1.35.
In December, it quietly took two of its popular snack items off shelves – Coconut Rings and Chocolate Rich Tea biscuits.
The supermarket confirmed the news after one customer said her fiance loved them but couldn’t find them on shelves.
