Aldi Has Under $10 Deals on a Variety of Asian Fusion Meals That Are Better Than Takeout

Love eating at restaurants offering international cuisine but have to cut down on your leisure spending budget? This week, Aldi Finds features options heavily inspired by Asian fusion, including all the different flavors of the East. 

Ordering out can add a heavy toll to your weekly "grocery" budget and might be some of the first things cut from your list when trying to tackle high grocery costs. 

Luckily, Aldi keeps these options stocked regularly and rotates specialty items in its weekly finds so you can have the best of both worlds.
