Aldi 'can't even defend' Easter treat that looks 'so rude'

Aldi, like most other major supermarkets, has released a number of special Easter items in the run up to April 9.

One one unsuspecting customer couldn't believe her eyes when she spotted some "rude" shapes in a bag of what was supposed to be sweets that look like bunnies and chicks. After the woman shared her findings on Twitter, many other shoppers said they'd noticed the same thing.

Sharing a photo of Aldi's Dominion Marshmallow Bunnies and Chicks, zoomed in on some "bunnies", she said: "Sorry Aldi, but that ain't a bunny".

Her post has received thousands of likes and comments, with many other shoppers seeing the same thing she did. David said: "We bought something like that in a gift shop on the coast. They were not called bunnies and chicks".

Eric said: "Given that the bunnies and eggs for Easter are about reproduction and new life I would say this is apt", while Lynette said: "I’m looking at it from every angle, trying to convince myself they are rabbit ears", and Cheryl said: "How did nobody spot this before it went out it clearly looks so rude!"

A tweet from the official Specsavers account said: "Might be time to pop in", while Aldi simply quoted the woman's tweet and said: "We can't even defend this one".
