Julius
Aldi's everyday house brand — very cheap per kg and convenient, but firmly entry-level. It scores low because the panels are cereal-led rather than named-meat-first, sourcing detail is minimal, and the meat content sits well below the premium tier. A no-frills budget feed where the low price is doing all the work; weigh it on cost-per-day, not the sticker.

Julius is a retailer-owned or house-promoted range, often keenly priced. Because it's stocked in fewer places, independent price comparison takes a little more work — compare on price per kg to find the best value.
