Aldi Australia finally brings back fan favourite snack: 'This is the most excited I've ever been'
The tasty treat first hit shelves in 2019 and was an instant hit among shoppers who snapped up boxes until sold out.
A play on words, the 'naanwich' is a unique sandwich featuring lashings of creamy butter chicken served between pieces of naan bread.
The snack, which has been described by Aldi as being 'like a taco but better', is priced $4.99 and comes in a two-pack serving.
After discovering that these cult snacks are now back on shelves, one Tiktok 's video has gone viral, amassing a staggering 346 thousand views in two days.
Labelling herself an 'Aldi enthusiast' on her social media account, Gemma couldn't contain her excitement at getting her hands on a pack – which comes with two servings.
'This is possibly the most excited I've ever been for an Aldi product,' she announced.
'I was worried this wasn't going to be a good butter chicken, but this is a big slay. I need to go stock up on these.'

Discount supermarket Aldi Australia is selling the delectable treat for $4.99 for a two-pack serving
After a quick 45 seconds in the microwave, the naanwich is ready to eat -with your fingers or with cutlery like Gemma if it's a bit too hot.
When Aldi first ever posted a photo of the 'naanwich' to its Facebook page it was flooded with thousands of comments from customers instantly wanting to know more.
The post accumulated more than 6,000 likes and as many 30,000 comments with many saying they'd tried the 'naanwich' and found it 'delicious'.
'I bought these and they're actually really good. Easiest and quickest dinner or lunch solution' wrote one person.
'This is basically how I already ate my butter chicken but God damn now it's made easier,' said another.
'I have tried these,' a third said. 'They are absolutely delicious.'
Now, thanks to popular demand, shoppers can head back in to stock back up on the popular snack while stocks last as Aldi has not confirmed if these will be available permanently in future.
The ultimate comfort food whilst battling against that winter chill, this product does exactly what is says on the packet.
'Don't walk, run to Aldi because this naanwich I think has changed my life,' said Gemma.

Defence Forces spend almost €2m on social media and advertising to boost recruitment
The Defence Forces (DF) spent close to €2 million over the past year on social media and advertising to try to drum up interest in a military career. The DF said €1.91 million had been spent reaching audiences through Facebook, TikTok, outdoor billboards, and even a streaming service popular with video gamers. Advertisement A further €71,000 was paid for content creation to be used in a variety of campaigns as the military battles to increase recruitment. The €1.987 million outlay did yield results, however, with nearly 13,000 people applying to join the enlisted ranks since July last year. The gender breakdown for those applications was 11,191 men and 1,751 women, or a ratio of about six males for each female. There were a further 2,203 applications for the officer ranks, the Defence Forces said in response to an FOI request. Advertisement These came from 1,895 men and 308 women, a similar gender split of around six to one. The Defence Forces said their biggest marketing spend was on digital campaigns, where nearly €720,000 was paid out for online channels, including YouTube. A further €183,000 was spent with Facebook, while €360,691 was paid for billboards and other outdoor advertising. Around €75,000 was spent on Snapchat, €79,057 on TikTok and just €50,000 on print media as the Defence Forces looked to reach younger age groups. Advertisement There was also spending of €23,018 on Twitch, a live-streaming service used mainly by video gamers and for watching esports. Just over €49,000 was spent on cinema ads, €197,000 for recruitment material on radio, and €179,000 for TV marketing. The Defence Forces have faced ongoing challenges in recruiting, and official figures from the end of April show the strength of the permanent forces was just 7,500. That compares with a force of around 9,500 in 2010, with a steady falloff during the past fifteen years, although the figure does now appear to have stabilised. A spokesman said: 'Óglaigh na hÉireann is committed to recruiting the best candidates to serve the state. Our advertising and outreach efforts are a critical part of attracting high-calibre individuals with the values, skills, and commitment required for military service. 'This investment ensures we maintain a strong, capable, professional force ready to meet the needs of the nation and defend our state.'
