I'm not a 'brand man' by any stretch of the imagination, if I can the Lidl version cheaper, I will. But I've never found a suitable substitute for KP dry roasted peanuts.
I don't think such a thing exists.
Never been keen on dry roasted.
Now, salt and vinegar peanuts! They are bloody lovely.
one of mine is bigger than the other, is this normal?
To answer the question, Pistachio nuts are the the best nut.
My mate used to work at Aldi, apparently their nuts are KP nuts and bread was Warburton's (from memory)
I like chili nuts, don't care where they're from.
Their legumes may be KP peanuts, but they're definitely not nuts.
Yes I used the term nuts to express my frustration at not finding a cheaper substitute from KP dry roasted peanuts. It wasn't in any way related to the topic.

Damn you, knew I should have bought both!
I'm in agreement with you OP. In the same vein, spicy doritos can't be imitated. The Aldi version is very tame indeed.
KP dry roasted nuts and cold beer are the staple for my summer night ride rehydration stop. I don't think a greater combination exists.
Honey roasted FTW
But Walkers Max ‘wasabi’ peanuts are even better
Coop dry roasted are not bad. I like to support Coop, they seem like good guys, and the nuts are OK. But they still seem a bit meagre compared to the majesty of a KP Dry Roasted.
Have not tried Aldi fellas, will do so!
Honey Roasted Cashews FTW.
As far as dry roasted nuts go. none of the off-brand offerings are as good as KP, no matter who actually makes them.
Dry roasted peanut are like crack to me. Doesn't really matter what brand, I will consume all available. Once ate a family bag in one sitting and didn't feel well at all for a couple of days...
Lidl wasabi rice/nut snack mix for me. All the noms
Thought this would be about that zenith of 90s lad-maggery, is disappoint 🙁
Thought this would be about the abundance of nuts nature has kindly produced this year.

Did he work in a store, or in the purchasing or development department? Unless it's the second then he's as likely to know where their nuts come from as the rest of us.
I used to work in food development and can tell you that yes, stores use the same factories, and no, they don't all use the same spec. Like bikes, just because the Merida factory builds a Spesh, it doesn't mean that the Spesh is the same as a Merida. Or, to use an older example, Bianchis used to be built in a pram factory... 😀
Edit : I've just looked at the ingredients on the nuts in question. They are different.
Honey Roasted Cashews FTW.
This.
Honey Roasted Cashews FTW.
What’s this?!? Where from?
Lidl unsalted cashews a favourite here. Not very on topic. Sorry.
What happend to branigans beer nuts, they were lush. Also their beef and mustard crisps were the mutts nuts.
I tried an acorn the other day. My dog helped me to open it. Was quite interesting.

M&S
I bought a pack of these today on a whim while doing some shopping. They are flipping amazing.

The reason that god equipped human beings with thumbs is so that we could open pistachios
Fact!
thought this would be about nuts. nyloc or not. 🙁
Honey roasted cashews with sesame seeds, from Ludlow farmer market.. though I see there an option from nutspick 👍

Was hoping for a tribute to 90s lad mags
Aldi salt and pepper cashews. Doughnuts are a staple too
Walkers Mexican chili nuts are amazing - perfect accompaniment to red wine.
