Only been watching your channel a little while now love the honest reviews always full of information proper food for the masses you have a great energy only one thing today is you nearly dropped a pollock lol all the best mate
It's possibly because youngs battered fish products can be quite greasy. When you cook the normal battered fish the amount of oil that comes off them is quite something. But they do taste really good.
Thanks for your down to earth reviews, I would go for the Aldi if it just a matter of a difference in the batter. A lot of food reviews on youtube are complete pollocks, but yours are totally genuine, thanks.
Let's hear it for pollock! I love eating cod and haddock, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with pollock, and by eating it we are conserving cod and haddock fish stocks. When you cut both burgers in half and pointed the camera, I straightaway thought the Aldi one looked fuller and whiter than the Youngs. As for the batter, I wouldn't pay an extra 76 pence just to get a slightly tastier batter.
Even if they were the same price, I'd still go for the Aldi product every time since their lovely white fish appears to be better quality than the much greyer appearance of the Young's product. I did notice that the Young's burger mentioned mustard as being one of the ingredients, presumably in the batter which you preferred. It may therefore be worth trying a small amount of mustard mayo with the Aldi burger to see if this does the trick.
I love the comparison video Gareth. Real opinions with normal food is what I like to see. Keep it honest and real, can't go wrong! I love fish and I will definitely be trying the Aldi ones on my next shop. Many thanks.
Gareth, I always buy the Aldi ones beside the Tempura they do southern and a buttermilk one. I like the buttermilk ones you should try them next they are really good in bun with tartar sauce and a bit of lettuce 😋
Hi Gareth; I’ve noticed lately in Morrison’s and Sainsbury’s everything has went up , it’s like half the stuff I get was up 50p it’s getting beyond a joke, I’ll be going to Aldi this week and I’ll be trying that fish and that pizza you get they look tasty. Great review.👍
Margaret, ,don't know whether you have a herons freezer shop,but also other supermarkets, since Brexit was in the process etc,50p+ seemed added to price,well also "think of price of the carrier bag, and also there individual free weighing bag for loose bananas,which you use to weigh produce, fruit+ veg,even assistant at the till said oh I'm sorry "they have stopped issuing free bags for maybe covering a bigger item, so yes "after every small shop as been put out of business crushed,etc ,the big boys will charge for anything and everything, at the moment I believe there car parks are free,well you know what's going to happen, eh and maybe a deposit for basket,

@@margaretrobinson1670 aye ya right,they will be charging us for the fresh air next, saying that its frightening, if our air is fresh and not being purposely polluted' but blaming global warming,instead because "I've never seen so many vapour patterns in the sky"
Gareth I found your channel some months ago, you are literally so genuine and real and lovely human, just watched the France vids hope you guys had a lush holibobs :)
Gareth, I'm surprised you did not cook them in the Ninja. I've got a couple of packets of these fish burgers from Aldi the other day, the tempura batter ones and the southern fried coating ones. I'll try them with burger buns. I usually use vinegar and salt to season the fish fillets. I'm not a tartare sauce person. LOL.
I like these style of reviews you give an honest opinion in regards to taste and price, also your honesty about having a few beers and feeling rough the morning after 😅
It would be either for me Gareth although I would probably opt for the cheaper one and get more of them simply for the fish content. I think the fish in the ALDI one looked better than the Princes one. I really like the Princes Fish Steaks, they are in parsley or butter sauce and come in a box of four, I can easily eat all four steaks with mashed potatoes and marrowfat peas. Another crackin' review pal, saving foodies money and ideas to try. Cheers pal.
Hi Gareth. They both look good to me. Whether served with chips and mushy peas or as a fish butty I'd be happy. Nice portion size and batter consistency. The Young's did brown a bit better, but Aldi as usual gets the value vote. Great review today Gareth. Cheers 👍🤤😀🇦🇺
Hiya mate.. :) Firstly, I love your videos.... a truly wonderful perspective on food comparisons, no bullshit, just honest opinions.... well done and keep it up. On this one (I know you are being honest, and it's about the value/taste over everything else, and not an analysis)... the significant difference in salt content makes this an unfair fight. Youngs used about 40% more salt, per burger, than the other one. Opens up taste, is a flavor enhancer... But 20% ARI for one burger? Maybe I'm missing the point, and perhaps I just like the underdog.... but you seem not to season your food pre-comparison. This time, they did it for you.. Just my thoughts ;)
Today it was the Aldi's tempura battered fish burger for lunch, also put in a brioche bun with lettuce and mayo. And today I added Tesco oven French fries and a portion of Florida salad from Morrisons. All very delicious .
Just been looking at these youngs on tesco website was going to get some after your vid but all the reviews were bad so changed my mind , but love your videos keep em coming
Hi Gareth, I love your reviews of ordinary food products that we can all buy from our local supermarkets. But unfortunately if you are going to weigh a package with two or more products in it, it is pointless to only way one item from each box unless you are sure that each of the products in their own box is of the same weight. Otherwise you may have a larger and smaller product in each of their own boxes, so you could have weighed the other two fish and found the opposite outcome. The boxes gave you the total full weight of the contents of the uncooked fish, although it was a bit cheeky and misguiding of Young's to use wasteful larger packaging. If I can make a suggestion, maybe you could in future do a gentle shake of boxes to see how full they are and not made up of fresh air. However I will certainly as always, look forward to your next review with thanks.
Gareth You ARE The Martin Lewis Of Food Saving And I And The Mrs Have Followed Your Reviews, Mate Your Spot ON LOL Please Continue With Your Reviews Mate God Bless YOU And YOUR FAMILY :)
Love your videos by the way I did laugh watching you toast your brioche bun the other day on top of the toaster.. next time put them in the toaster for one minute that's the way forward great videos I will catch you on your Friday night live vlogs soon as I'm always in on a Friday . 👍
Cheers, yes I always forget and burn them if I put them in the toaster, it's rubbish my toaster. Yes be going live next Friday at 8pm glad you like the videos Samantha 😋😋👍😘
@@BaldFoodieGuy I see so you do know about the toaster method haha yes I love the vids I'm a massive foodie and love a bargain so the comparison videos are great keep up the good work catch you Friday wine in hand! X
Lol 118 got your number hahaha cracked me up you do pal great video I think your channel is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels and I'm subbed to between 1500 and 2000 channels now so just goes to show how good you actually are your videos make my day you always put a smile on my face so thank you for that because I have been really suicidal recently but now I carnt do anything like that because I've got your video's to watch
The thing about it is baldy . At 76 pence more expensive. U could buy 3 packs of Aldi . For bout same price as 2 packs of Young’s . Would u rather 3 Aldi pieces of fish or 2 Young’s pieces . Works out about same price . That’s what u gotta start doing . Working out how much more u can buy of one for the same money
The Aldi one looks much tastier! The coating looks lighter and the fish looks much better. That's before you tasted them! I'll bet the Aldi one is a more healthy option 🙂😉🙂 I know which one my wife would prefer! 🤔
Iv tried the aldi fish burgers but much prefer to use fish finger in a bun.You can get in aldi 10 cod fish finger for £1.49,so five fish fingers cost the same as one fish burger but you getting cod and not a cheaper white fish alternative,plus easier and quicker to cook because of the frozen mass of the burger.
Both looked good but I think I would go for the Aldi one looking at the white fish. The other fish looked a little bit wet, undercooked and grey to me but obviously down to taste.
Hi mate keep up the good work watched all ur videos they do new fish burgers with southern fried courting or hot and spicy fish burgers u need to try and there oy 1.99
I mix and match depending if I have jobs to do in the house between cooking. I find I have to nurse the Ninja as no cooking times. Oven is bang it on set timer and I can do my jobs knowing the food will be cooked as per cooking instructions on the box., 👌👌
Hey Gareth!!!!! If I want savings, it is Aldi. If I dont, it is Youngs. Savings adds up in my pocket over time. What is more important, savings or texture/taste? Let me know about YOU Gareth 🐟 🐟 🍽 🔪 🍴 🍴 🔪 🍽 🍻 🍻 🍺 🍺 🍷 🍷 GREAT vid 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 🎥 🎥 📱 📱
The batter looked a lot better on the Young's. You just need to shop around to bring the price of the Young's down. I've bought the youngs ones for £1.59 before. If you like that batter then farmfoods do Young's salt and vinegar/ beer battered fillets quite cheap. They used to be a quid a box but I think they've gone up a bit now.
@@BaldFoodieGuy those asda hot and spicy chicken fillet burgers have gone up to £2.20. I'm going to keep going on about it till you do them. Still a bargain though as you get 4 compared to the pack of two birds eye chicken shop ones.
@@BaldFoodieGuy I often get them great with a 22p can of Aldi mushy peas and some chips, I am not a fan of oven chips so I either cut some maris pipers up or if I am feeling lazy just use Aldi frozen chips in the old deep fat fryer couple of rounds of bread and butter salt vinegar and ketchup and its a tea fit for a king for about £1.50 ! :-)
Another great evaluation, buddy, hey, keep control of the fork, if not, that crisp, pristine shirt of yours is going to get an early bath in the washing machine! 😀👍
Hi Gareth I’ve just recently subscribed to your channel after finding you here on youtube, 👍😊 I must admit I’m finding it really interesting & informative and you make it fun too!…I didn’t know Aldi did these fish burgers, i have only had the young’s one’s, but will definitely give them a try 👌😊
I have now tried the southern fried fish burger and I do _not_ recommend it. The southern fried coating is too overpowering and you can't taste the fish. Eventually I peeled off the coating and just ate the fish.
@@BaldFoodieGuy I don't think you did. You reviewed the tempura battered burger, but I spotted the southern fried version on the same shelf in Aldi. There is also a buttermilk version, which I haven't tried. The tempura one is very good, though.
Yes, I was buying groceries in Aldi in Germany in the 1970s when it was called Albrecht. When I returned to England in the 1980s I never thought I would see Aldi here. And now they're everywhere and Tesco are having to price match!
I buy the buttermilk version of these from Aldi, they're delicious. However the Lidl sea salt & black pepper basa fillets are more flavoursome than the Aldi version, also so much better than the branded ones 👍🏴
Soon be 21K foodie subscribers! I believe the fish in the Young's has been against a bone, and that's why it's that colour. If anyone knows different... The Young's are also available from Sainsbury's (I know you said you don't have one, Gaz) and Tesco for £2.00 and £1.75 Clubcard price; so potentially only 13p more per burger. I used to get some nice fish burgers from Farm Foods, don't know if they still do them. I can highly recommend the Young's Gastro Lemon and Herb tempura basa fillets. Iceland and Aldi do their own, too. Young's have the edge, but Aldi's are not far behind. I'm guessing you couldn't hear me shouting frustratedly at my screen "WEIGH THE OTHER ONE!!" ⚖ 🐟 😂
Cheers Shell yes I was wondering who it was off thank you very much. Will add it in a video this week coming. You are very kind. My wife's friends live in the same village you live in. We used to live in Newark.
@@BaldFoodieGuylol small world, I live in the not posh part of the village and am a district nurse in Newark, well off sick but there you go lol. Enjoy the rellish great stuff 🖖
Hi Gareth hope all’s well. Are you sure they said burger off? 😂 😂 Sorry, it had to be done 😂 😂 Both looked yummy, but I do love my fish ❤️ Cheaper is as good if not nicer in some instances as you’ve proven on many’s a time. 😂 that’s your age now getting hungover 🤕 😂 Gr8 review as always ❤️ 😘 xx
@@BaldFoodieGuy Yes, Double pepperoni (just has Jalapeño) for spice. I add more but honestly it's a delicious pizza for £1.75. You could compare it to another to make a video out of it. 🌶 🍕
Good range that. I normally get the bacon and chicken or the BBQ meat one….the garlic chicken is also good which has like a creamy garlic sauce rather than tomato. Up to quite recently they were all £1.50 in the range so price hikes across the board…not small ones either. Still a bargain at £1.75 though.
I tried the youngs chip shop fish did not like, it also there is so much fat dripping out of it when coking, I think you had a pool of fat under yours as well. the box show how much more fat sugar and salt was in the young I use lidl as that's the only one in my town
We bought the aldi fish burgers last week the southern fried flavour , we loved them, been and got two more for this week , not had the battered ones though , we got the breadcrumbed ones, not tried the Young’s ones 😋
I always get the Southern fried coating one from Aldi, can't go wrong with lettuce and a dollop of tartare sauce!
Yes seen them ones. Sounds lovely 😋👍
Plus toasted bun 😋🍀🇬🇧👍🏼
Anything with a southern fried coating is always a winner in my book.
Yes they are certainly bang on love them

OK, who r we saving the haddock for? ME! I hope, l don’t like pollock at all so me myself and I wouldn’t care what is the best value for money 🤪🤪👍🇬🇧
@@shadybad9836 Fair enough. I can taste very little difference in pollock compared to cod and haddock. But I do eat smoked haddock twice a week.
Me too deffo!

I've got the aldi one in my freezer but by the time I've added salad mayo and pepper sauce I'd not be able to tell that much difference between them 🙂

I agree with you Richard, when I add sauces to fish, etc, it covers up the real taste. I like the real taste sometime 🐟 🐟

@@BaldFoodieGuy those asda hot and spicy chicken fillet burgers have gone up to £2.20. I'm going to keep going on about it till you do them. Still a bargain though as you get 4 compared to the pack of two birds eye chicken shop ones.
I've got them I think in my freezer Matt will get them out tomorrow.
Gaz you said the Aldi ones were more expensive after you weighed them mate...
Did I lol, no Aldi ones were cheaper. I get mixed up now and again. I'm blameing last night festivities lol hope you are well pal.
@@BaldFoodieGuy I'm great Gaz, hope you and the gang are good 👍
Got your number 😂😂😂 funny you said the Young's I thought the batter looked nicer 🍀🇬🇧👍🏼
118 haha
Good video l😆 👍
Cheers Mick
Oi oi G, looking dapper in your shirt!
Cheers, yes bit rough from last night lol
in Farmfoods they do a twin pack of Youngs Beer Battered fish they used to be £1 but I think they are now £1.25 They are gorgeous! Its the batter! :-)
good to know
@@BaldFoodieGuy I often get them great with a 22p can of Aldi mushy peas and some chips, I am not a fan of oven chips so I either cut some maris pipers up or if I am feeling lazy just use Aldi frozen chips in the old deep fat fryer couple of rounds of bread and butter salt vinegar and ketchup and its a tea fit for a king for about £1.50 ! :-)
Cheers 😋😋👍
Another great evaluation, buddy, hey, keep control of the fork, if not, that crisp, pristine shirt of yours is going to get an early bath in the washing machine! 😀👍
Haha yes
Hi Gareth I’ve just recently subscribed to your channel after finding you here on youtube, 👍😊 I must admit I’m finding it really interesting & informative and you make it fun too!…I didn’t know Aldi did these fish burgers, i have only had the young’s one’s, but will definitely give them a try 👌😊
Thank you, glad you like the videos and welcome to the channel. All the best, Gareth 😋😋👍
I would buy the Aldi one myself looks nice good food review you are saving people money on there shopping Gareth
Good choice!
I have now tried the southern fried fish burger and I do _not_ recommend it. The southern fried coating is too overpowering and you can't taste the fish. Eventually I peeled off the coating and just ate the fish.
OK mate I'm not sure if I have had it pal. Cheers.
@@BaldFoodieGuy I don't think you did. You reviewed the tempura battered burger, but I spotted the southern fried version on the same shelf in Aldi. There is also a buttermilk version, which I haven't tried. The tempura one is very good, though.
I visit Germany a lot and Aldi there has some really high quality good value stuff, looks like UK one is going that way 👍👍👍
Yes, I was buying groceries in Aldi in Germany in the 1970s when it was called Albrecht. When I returned to England in the 1980s I never thought I would see Aldi here. And now they're everywhere and Tesco are having to price match!
Birds eye do some really nice chicken breast but I really don't like the tempura battered ones. ( my favourite is sticky and sweet).
I haven't tried much Aldi food at all. Will try this though.
Are you growing the beard again Gareth?
The beard is growing going to keep it trimmed though.
I buy the buttermilk version of these from Aldi, they're delicious. However the Lidl sea salt & black pepper basa fillets are more flavoursome than the Aldi version, also so much better than the branded ones 👍🏴
Cheers Lesley
After watching how they Farm Basa in Vietnam I wouldn't touch it sorry.
Very entertaining.🇦🇺
Thanks 😋👌👌

I believe the fish in the Young's has been against a bone, and that's why it's that colour. If anyone knows different...
The Young's are also available from Sainsbury's (I know you said you don't have one, Gaz) and Tesco for £2.00 and £1.75 Clubcard price; so potentially only 13p more per burger.
I used to get some nice fish burgers from Farm Foods, don't know if they still do them.
I can highly recommend the Young's Gastro Lemon and Herb tempura basa fillets. Iceland and Aldi do their own, too. Young's have the edge, but Aldi's are not far behind.
I'm guessing you couldn't hear me shouting frustratedly at my screen "WEIGH THE OTHER ONE!!" ⚖ 🐟 😂
Cheers, yes I weighed them both. Do you mean the one in the box lol
@@BaldFoodieGuy yes, to check you had 227g of each make.
I've bought the Aldi ones many times and enjoy them.
Cheers Paul.
Did the Henderson arrive or do I have to chase the post office 🖖🌟
Cheers Shell yes I was wondering who it was off thank you very much. Will add it in a video this week coming. You are very kind. My wife's friends live in the same village you live in. We used to live in Newark.
@@BaldFoodieGuylol small world, I live in the not posh part of the village and am a district nurse in Newark, well off sick but there you go lol. Enjoy the rellish great stuff 🖖
My wife used to work in Newark hospital up to 2013 you might know her lol
Hi Gareth hope all’s well. Are you sure they said burger off? 😂 😂 Sorry, it had to be done 😂 😂 Both looked yummy, but I do love my fish ❤️ Cheaper is as good if not nicer in some instances as you’ve proven on many’s a time. 😂 that’s your age now getting hungover 🤕 😂 Gr8 review as always ❤️ 😘 xx
Haha yes getting old lol x
hope you are spot on mate 🙂
Spot on now Michael
I always buy the aldi ones the tempura batter ones are so nice
cheers Kim
Hope you finally get round to trying Iceland’s stonebaked Pizza's. Especially the spicy double pepperoni. 😋
Yes I've had a scary spiced one that was good. 😋😋👍
@@BaldFoodieGuy Not from the scarily spicy. Just from their normal woodfired stonebaked Pizza's range.
Yes will try them. I like deep pan but will give them a go. Any suggestions oh spicy double peperonni
@@BaldFoodieGuy Yes, Double pepperoni (just has Jalapeño) for spice. I add more but honestly it's a delicious pizza for £1.75. You could compare it to another to make a video out of it. 🌶 🍕
Good range that. I normally get the bacon and chicken or the BBQ meat one….the garlic chicken is also good which has like a creamy garlic sauce rather than tomato. Up to quite recently they were all £1.50 in the range so price hikes across the board…not small ones either. Still a bargain at £1.75 though.
Love the content of your video Gareth , I always buy Youngs fish when they are on offer , they are so tasty
Thank you 😋👌👍
Good post the Aldi fish looked better. After putting sauces, salt and vinegar on pretty sure you would not notice the batter
Thanks for the tip!
The Aldi southern fried fish burgers are the ones trust me lush!
Cheers Samantha 😋😋👍😘
I tried the youngs chip shop fish did not like, it also there is so much fat dripping out of it when coking, I think you had a pool of fat under yours as well. the box show how much more fat sugar and salt was in the young I use lidl as that's the only one in my town
Cheers Chaz
I’m a cod fan! The ALDI one looked more appealing.
We bought the aldi fish burgers last week the southern fried flavour , we loved them, been and got two more for this week , not had the battered ones though , we got the breadcrumbed ones, not tried the Young’s ones 😋
Cheers Yvonne.
The tasty catch southern fried one is the best by aldi the batter on it is delicious with a kick outstanding
