They're at it again!
Lidl have hilariously thrown shade at Aldi again - and this time, it's over mince pies!
The supermarket chain tweeted a picture of one of our products, calling out their German supermarket rivals.
The tweet was sparked by a customer, who posted a photo of the gluten free mince pies in question to her Instagram story tagging Aldi.
However, the coeliac-friendly Christmas favourites were actually from Lidl - awkward!
When Aldi shared the story on their own account, Lidl saw the opportunity to throw a dig.

Now, Aldi have fired back with their own tweet!
Using the face palm emoji, Aldi wrote: "We should have known, ours are cheaper at €2.49, have a shiny Blas Na hÉireann award, and are handmade by the fabulous @goodnessgrains, Longford. Pick up a pack and support Irish."

Miaow!
We'll have to wait and see if Lidl responds ...
