I have an aldi at home. Love it, had it 18mth and now feel like i cant live without it. My fave are the 12, i use a pod twice for one mug. I have the fact i just throw them in the trash, it is such a wasteful habit.... i heard some pods are recyclable but couldnt find anywhere on aldi ones to say they are or arent... think this is something they (or any coffee pod makers ) should work on.
