They seemed to agree with the comparison, writing 'facts' in the caption.
After sharing the comical Lidl theory online, over 127,000 people have liked the video, suggesting they were also entertained by this.
Others were left scratching their heads, and saying they couldn't personally see it.

Helpfully, others explained that the 'dog' is the red 'i' of Lidl, with the animal facing left towards the first L.
They claimed the slanted 'i' looked like a dog's front paws resting up against a 'piano', with the other side looking like a tail.
For those who still couldn't visualise it, someone shared a photo in the comments mocking up a dog to show it more clearly.
One person wrote: 'Took a few minutes but found the dog playing piano.'

NAME MIXED UP
Millions of people love shopping at budget supermarkets Aldi and Lidl - but have you been
The retailers have cleared up how their brand names should actually be said, and it's baffled numerous shoppers.
First off, when it comes to Lidl, many British people call it with a short, sharp 'Li' at the start, which makes it sound similar to the word little.
However, in Germany - where the store originated in the 1930s - the store is actually pronounced Lee-dl.

Meanwhile, Aldi has also left customers torn with some calling it All-di when they do their grocery shopping.
According to the German retailer, it should actually be a short 'Al' such as with the word alloy.
The name actually came from the surname of the brothers who started the chain.

Aldi was founded by Karl Albrecht and his brother Theo, and the 'Al' is taken from Albrecht, and the 'di' comes from discount.
Although the store was initially launched in 1946, it became known as Aldi in 1962, and currently has 11,234 locations.
Why do Aldi and Lidl have such fast checkouts
IF you've ever shopped in Aldi or Lidl then you'll probably have experienced its ultra-fast checkout staff.
Aldi's speedy reputation is no mistake, in fact, the supermarket claims that its tills are 40 per cent quicker than rivals.
It's all part of Aldi's plan to be as efficient as possible - and this, the budget shop claims, helps keep costs low for shoppers.
Efficient barcodes on packaging means staff are able to scan items as quickly as possible, with the majority of products having multiple barcodes to speed up the process.
It also uses 'shelf-ready' packaging which keeps costs low when it comes to replenishing stock.

Trinidadian-Irish writer makes Booker Prize longlist
The longlist for the Booker Prize has been announced with no Irish-born authors included this year. However, Claire Adam, a Trinidadian-Irish writer, whose mother is from Cork, is among those selected for her novel 'Love Forms'. Chosen from 153 submissions, the list of 13 authors - described as a "baker's dozen" - celebrates the best works of long-form fiction by writers of any nationality, according to the Booker Prize committee. The nominated books are: Love Forms by Claire Adam (Faber) The South by Tash Aw (4th Estate) Universality by Natasha Brown (Faber) One Boat by Jonathan Buckley (Fitzcarraldo Editions) Flashlight by Susan Choi (Jonathan Cape) The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny by Kiran Desai (Hamish Hamilton) Audition by Katie Kitamura (Fern Press) The Rest of Our Lives by Ben Markovits (Faber) The Land in Winter by Andrew Miller (Sceptre) Endling by Maria Reva (Virago/Little, Brown) Flesh by David Szalay (Jonathan Cape) Seascraper by Benjamin Wood (Viking) Misinterpretation by Ledia Xhoga (Daunt Books Originals) The 2025 judging panel is chaired by Ireland's 1993 Booker Prize winner Roddy Doyle and includes award-winning actor, producer and publisher Sarah Jessica Parker, Booker Prize-longlisted novelist Ayọ̀bámi Adébáyọ̀, writer, broadcaster and literary critic Chris Power, and New York Times bestselling and Booker Prize-longlisted author Kiley Reid. The committee described its job as looking for the best work of fiction, selected from entries published in Ireland or Britain between 1 October 2024 and 30 September 2025. The list, which features seven women and six men, includes five authors who identify as British or joint British - including one who identifies as Hungarian-British - and four who identify as American or joint American - including one who identifies as Albanian-American. Mr Doyle said: "There are short novels and some very long ones. There are novels that experiment with form and others that do so less obviously. "Some of them examine the past and others poke at our shaky present. They are all alive with great characters and narrative surprises. "All, somehow, examine identity, individual or national, and all, I think, are gripping and excellent."

How the Cotswolds is turning into the English Hollywood – my top places to visit away from the crowds
WHILE the Cotswolds is hardly a hidden gem, it seems interest in the beautiful county is booming with the rich and famous further afield.

Local Plum Sykes told Radio 4 the influx of Americans is because of the "English fantasy of the countryside'. Read more on Cotswolds She cited the famously exclusive Estelle Manor, saying it is "like the Beverley Hills Hotel on a Cotswolds hill." Not only that, but there is the famous Soho Farmhouse and of course Cotswolds Airport allowing direct access by private jet or helicopter. But Most read in News Travel New bans being introduced on coached in a bid to protect the locals, with one local saying: "Bibury is not built in any way for these large coaches - we are a real victim of over tourism and we are becoming the collateral damage and that is not right." But there are some fantastic places you can go where you won't find massive crowds and you won't annoy the locals. Clarkson's Farm fan wins £5million Cotswolds mega mansion right next door to Jeremy Clarkson... & can't believe his luck So here are my favourite spots that have all of that fairytale charm - but without too many people around. Witney As my hometown, I'd be remiss to not talk about the town of Witney. It is often overlooked, despite having a quaint market town centre made up of the famous Cotswolds stone. There is the Blue Boar Hotel, right in the middle of town with cosy rooms overlooking the square. The town is also known for it's amazing independent shops, including Lily's Attics and Witney Antiques for homeware. And a piece of cake from Hunters Cake Company followed by a stuffed baguette from Sandwich de Witney is a must too. Cogges Manor Farm is great for little ones, with live animal feeding including pygmy goats and Shetland ponies, or you can learn about the town's blanket making history at Witney Museum. Otherwise hop on the many buses that go to Oxford, taking around 30 minutes. 7 Witney can't be missed but a lot of people overlook it Credit: Alamy Minster Lovell While there is little to do at Minster Lovell, it is a quintessential village with thatched roof cottages lining the cobbled paths. You'll spot the locals playing at the Minster Lovell Halls ruins (built by one of the richest men in Britain at the time,) with picnics and ball games along the river. There are just two pubs nearby, with the Old Swan serving up classic gastro pub food. Make sure to stay there too - its also a five-star hotel. Otherwise there is The White Hart, a family run pub dating back to the 15th century. 7 The ruins of Minster Lovell Hall are popular with locals Credit: Alamy Burford The small town of Burford is one of my favourites, as you won't find many chain shops here. The hill is lined with retro sweet shops as well as amazing cafes for afternoon tea. Keep your scraps and head to the bottom of the road where you can feed the ducks on the river or have a game of pooh sticks. Want somewhere to stay? One of the fanciest is The Bull, said to have once hosted Lord Nelson. 7 You won't see many chain stores in Burford Credit: Alamy What celebs live in the Cotswolds? David and Victoria Beckham : Near Great Tew, close to Chipping Norton. Jeremy Clarkson : Near Chipping Norton, where he runs a farm shop and pub.

Woodstock While a lot of people visit Blenheim Palace - nearly a million a year, in fact - many might skip over the nearby town of Woodstock. But the quaint town is one to visit if you fancy a cosy pub on the river. My top pick is The Black Prince, where you can grab a pint and overlook the river on a sunny day.
