The prequels were really bad. They get love mainly because a) a lot of us were kids, and b) they're a fertile source of memes.

ALDI has gotten noticeably better in product quality in the last decade or so.

Competition will do that. Their primary German competitor LIDL has entered the US market which forced them to renovate their stores.

With regards to store brands, ALDI, Trader Joe's, and LIDL have built their entire reputation around them. Even the traditional supermarkets are getting more into them (Shop-Rite recently took on the "Bowl and Basket" name for their generics). The reason is simple..... its big bucks. While it costs the shopper less, there is more profit margin on the generics vs. the retail brands.

Trader Joe's is basically an upscale Aldi.

Considering they are owned by the same family, I think that's just a fact, not an unpopular opinion.

No, the shit comes a while after eating the curly fries together with other greasy food.
"You know, you never have a guaranteed spot until you have a spot guaranteed."
—Olaf Kolzig, as quoted in the Washington Times on March 28, 2003,
commenting on the Capitals clinching a playoff spot.

"That sounded stupid, didn't it?"
—Kolzig, to the same reporter a few seconds later.

See, I've found that most fast food if it is fried is way over cooked.  That being the case it's one of the most reliable food sources on road trips in terms of not causing diarrhea. 

Taco Bell on the other hand is a whole another story...

That's why Taco Bell's advertising slogan used to be "Good to Go."
