Lidl shopper suggests there's hidden figure in logo - now people can't unsee it
Popular supermarket chain Lidl remains one of the most popular stores across Europe, with shoppers often preferring its budget-friendly products over the more expensive alternatives elsewhere. Founded in Germany in the early 1930s by Josef Schwarz, Lidl has since expanded into a multi-billion euro chain with more than 12,000 stores worldwide. It also employs close to 400,000 people. While Lidl has been around for nearly a century, it wasn't until the 1970s that it became renowned for its noticeably discounted products when compared to other established supermarkets. The first Lidl store in Ireland opened at the turn of the millennium. The Lidl logo is instantly recognisable, with the company name displayed in dark blue font but the 'i' shown in a distinctive red colour. The company name is displayed in a yellow circle with a red border. There is a theory, however, that there is a hidden image in the logo, the Mirror reports. On Reddit, one Lidl shopper shared an observation which some users admitted that they'll never unsee. The Redditor suggested that there was a 'dog playing piano' hidden within the company logo. "Do you guys also see the dog playing piano in the Lidl logo?" they wrote on the post as they shared a photo of a Lidl plastic bag with the logo on it. They went on to explain: "I saw on Insta that people are saying the Lidl logo looks like a dog playing the piano. The 'L' is the piano in this case, and the dog is the 'I' with the tail touching the D." The theory divided opinion online as many agreed with the observation after being made aware of it. "Now that you mention it," one person said. Someone else went on to say: "Nah, that's a cat." "C**p, now I can't unsee it anymore," a third person said. A fourth user also shared: "I'd seen the claim earlier, but I needed the explanation to find it." Another user wrote: "The first time I saw this, it was still funny. Now I've lost count." One parent went on to share: "Years ago, when my teenager was still a toddler, he once said we were at the store with the doggy. I spent ages trying to figure out why he called it 'the store with the doggy.' So I asked, and then he pointed to the slanted I in the logo now. Ever since then, that's all I see." Lidl are dropping prices on a number of items (Image: Jakub Porzycki/NurPhoto via Getty Images) Not everybody agreed with the theory, however, as some even struggled to spot it. One commenter admitted: "I don't see it. Sorry." Another could see the thought process but felt like it was a bit of a stretch. They penned: "I see what's meant, but I think it's a bit far-fetched." A number of companies tend to put plenty of thought into including hidden themes in their logos - as is the case with the iconic FedEx logo that subtly includes an arrow to indicate delivery or Amazon, which features an arrow between the A and Z. But Lidl have never confirmed that there is any other meaning to the logo of the supermarket chain so this is likely completely unintentional. But good luck unseeing it!

Wine with Leslie: Fizzy business for your August evenings with these pocket-friendly sips
The wine world is hurting, with sales down in all relevant markets (especially China, which is down to 2006 levels). Mention anything about the peer-reviewed studies which have consistently shown that alcohol in moderation can have some health benefits, and you will be pointed to the WHO Lancet piece from 2023, which declared that no level of alcohol consumption is safe. The likes of me can shout all they want about this; no politician is going to take up my cause, and reduce excise to put us in line with our EU counterparts (except maybe that fella in the cap from Kerry). I'm not sure if this is good news, but the downturn in sales means that bulk wine has never been cheaper, so supermarket wines will continue to be sold close to the government minimum price of around €8 per bottle. Will they taste good, however? Personally, I believe that minimum pricing is a tax on the poor and will have little impact on the health of the nation. For what it's worth, the economist Christopher Snowden agrees with me (his Substack is free and worth following). The gastronomic and social benefits of moderate consumption are what I should focus on, it's more solid ground. A glass of fizz or rosé on a warm August evening with a salad of ripe tomatoes with grilled haloumi, aubergines and free-range pork from the barbecue has to be beneficial to health and well-being... With this in mind all of the wines recommended today represent value and will at least keep your bank account healthy. Breath of Paradise, Côtes de Provence Rosé 2024 €11.99 Breath of Paradise, Côtes de Provence Rosé 2024 €11.99 Lidl Look familiar? It is of course a nod to Whispering Angel (€26). Tasting the two together, the WA is a little fuller on the palate and a little finer, but Breath of P. is a similar creature with soft raspberry fruits and more citrus acidity on the finish (no bad thing). Also in Lidl is the candy and berry scented Quarzose rosé for just €9. Faustino Rivero Ulecia Albariño, Rias Baixas, Spain €16 Faustino Rivero Ulecia Albariño, Rias Baixas, Spain €16 Tesco I don't mention Tesco all that often, so I am happy to recommend this Alabriño from Rias Baixas, a small region in northwestern Spain which has nonetheless become one of Ireland's most popular wines. The price of albariño grapes has shot-up due to demand recently, so this is good value. Pleasingly aromatic with floral peach and pear aromas, a textured palate and balancing citrus freshness Albert de Conti Pet-Nat, Bergerac, France Albert de Conti Pet-Nat, Bergerac, France - €18.50 - €22 JJ O'Driscolls; L'Atitude 51; Bradleys; Green Man Wines; Mitchells; Le Caveau This excellent pet-nat is on offer in JJ O'Driscolls this month at a bargain price. Organic, biodynamic and part of the new wave of young natural/organic producers revitalising the industry. Floral lemon aromas, leesy and creamy pear fruits on the palate with crisp citrus acidity on the finish. Joyous. Beer of the Week To Øl Whirl Domination India Pale Ale To Øl Whirl Domination India Pale Ale, Denmark, 6.2% ABV, 440ml €3.95 Bradleys; O'Briens; Independents; Denmark's To Øl are 15 years old this year and I've yet to taste a bad beer from this great Independent. This was the first IPA to be brewed in their new brewhouse and is double dry-hopped. Herbal, tangerine and citrus aromas; creamy orange-split ice cream notes on first sip before the malt kicks in, rounded and fruity with a hop-driven finish.

Food Safety Authority of Ireland enforced closures of several businesses this summer
A Dublin branch of German supermarket giant Lidl and a popular tourist hotel in Tralee, County Kerry are just two of the businesses that were forced to close their doors under orders issued by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) in July. Ten closure orders in total were handed out by the FSAI last month, including the Lidl store on the Sallynoggin Road in Glenageary, Dublin, where the entire premises was ordered to close after rodent droppings were found in multiple locations across the shop floor and the store room. The report also detailed what was described as 'extensive food debris' on the floor of the store room, and 'large amounts of foodstuffs' in areas where rodent droppings were visible on the floors. Photo: Sam Boal/ A live mouse was even observed scampering across the floor in the store room by two environmental health officials, inspecting the store. The order on the store, issued on July 29th, was lifted on August 1st and the HSE conducted a review and approved the store for reopening. In response to the order, a spokesperson for Lidl said 'providing a clean, safe and enjoyable shopping experience for all of our customers is of the utmost importance to us' and the retail giant takes food safety issues 'extremely seriously'. A live mouse was even observed scampering across the floor in the store room by two environmental health officials, inspecting the store. Pic: Shutterstock Lidl has stated that it has since fully collaborated with the HSE and taken necessary steps, including hiring a professional pest control service, conducting a deep clean and full sanitation of the store, and pest-proofing the premises to prevent future issues. Lidl has also reasssured customers that a full internal review of processes has been carried out to ensure cleanliness and food safety at the store. 'We understand and apologise for the concern this has caused and would like to assure our customers that the issue was addressed fully and efficiently', Lidl said. Pic: Getty Images Meanwhile, a popular hotel in Tralee, County Kerry was at the centre of a cockroach infestation, resulting in the closure of its kitchen for a time. The Brandon Hotel suffered what's been described as a 'significant cockroach infestation' in a number of areas of the hotel, including dead roaches in the main kitchen, under fridges, and on the floors of the wash-up area and even the staff canteen. Live cockroaches were even seen in the hotel's restaurant. The closure order was lifted on July 25th. Pic: Getty Images Meanwhile, even theme parks do not escape the scourge of the pests, with a storage unit at the rear of a coffee dock in Emerald Park in Ashbourne, Co Meath closed for a time on July 14th after rat droppings were found in the unit. Environmental inspectors found rodent droppings in an area used for storing food and items like cups, lids, straws, food containers and trays and their report noted that the unit was not pest-proof, with holes in the walls. A number of other businesses hit with closure orders over the past number of weeks include a Londis store on Connaught Street in Athboy, County Meath, Creeds foodstore in Cahir, County Tipperary, and KRS Catering Stall in Clonmel, County Tipperary. Tim Nessa on John's Street in Limerick was served a closure order, as was the Costa Coffee on Dublin's Dawson Street. Wakami Sushi and Asian and Hidden Dojo Asian Streetfood, both based on Phibsborough Road in Dublin, were also forced to close. Pic: Shutterstock The Food Safety Authority of Ireland said that recent incidents involving foodstuffs serve as a stark reminder of the need for businesses handling food to maintain the highest standards of food safety, and that customers are entitled to expect that the food they purchase is safe. The report from the FSAI went on to say that 'Every food business must take its responsibility to comply with food safety law seriously. The FSAI can provide support and advice to food businesses to help them meet their obligations.' 'However, as demonstrated by the enforcement actions this month, where food businesses do not comply with their obligations, we will take action.'
