The 'Magic Bags' promise a range of groceries, in a mission to eliminate food waste across the country. Shoppers will now be able to snag products approaching their sell-by or use-by dates at less than a third of the price, with £10 worth of food able to purchase at £3.30. It comes as Aldi has partnered with popular food waste app Too Good To Go, rolling out the service across all of its 990 stores in the UK earlier this month. 'We believe that everyone deserves to eat well at an affordable price, and we hope this additional support will ensure that good quality food doesn’t go to waste,' he added. 'It’s great to see that shoppers have been enjoying the ‘Taste Me, Don’t Waste Me’ boxes, which is why we’re really pleased to roll out the trial to over 200 supermarkets, helping even more people across the country.

Richard Crampton, Director of Fresh Food, at Sainsbury’s said: 'At Sainsbury’s we’re committed to helping our customers access tasty, nutritious food that’s better for them and the planet too. The boxes will be filled with surplus vegetables and fruits that could go to waste if unsold, and will be available at a cheaper rate to insure people who are feeling the squeeze during the cost of living crisis can still have access to nutritious ingredients. Sainsbury's is one of the latest supermarket to have launched value boxes with surplus veggies and fruits in order to curb food waste, and will make his £2 'Taste Me, Don't Waste Me' boxes in 200 stores across the country
