‘I could not have expected this.’

A man in the UK who picked up a Too Good To Go bag for £3.30 (€3.99 in Ireland) from Aldi has left people in stitches after sharing the contents of the bag.

The Too Good to Go app is designed to fight food waste and allows users to pick up food that would otherwise go in the bin from a host of outlets.

From local restaurants to big brands, what you get is typically a mystery but you can usually grab a whole host of food for a vastly reduced cost.

People run to buy Aldi’s €3.99 ‘Surprise Bag’ after man gets enough cheese to feed a whole city

A man named Blair shared the goodies he came out with from his Aldi “grocery surprise bag” on Twitter, now known as X.

Costing him just £3.30, the first item he highlighted was a Korean Style Barbecue Beef rice bowl, which costs £2.69 by itself.

“So here is the Too Good to Go haul,” Blair says in the video.

“We’ve got a nice Korean Style Barbecue Beef. What else did we get? Oh, we got 36 blocks of cheese!”

Rather understandably, Blair and his buds found the box’s contents hilarious, as you can hear them sniggering in the background of the clip.

“Got a £3.30 too good to go bag from Aldi. I could not have expected this,” he captioned the video.
