Not everyone seems to like this Weißwurst interpretation - one customer made this very clear on Facebook.
But ALDI Süd had an answer ready.
Munich - If you play with regional specialties, it can get uncomfortable - that shows up again and again.
At the end of August, a Kaufland in Nuremberg had to find out about a sign, now ALDI Süd sees itself under criticism.
The reason: A “new interpretation” of the Weißwurst dish, as the retail giant calls it.
"That's no Wiesn delicacy": Customer outraged by white sausage interpretation
A customer, who probably comes from Bavaria because of the accent advertised, posted a photo of a product sold by ALDI Süd on Facebook.
He captioned the photo, which he shared on the company's official Facebook page, with the words: "That's no Wiesn delicacy, but for" – followed by clear emoji face signs.
The user then added his current mood to the Facebook post: Stocksauer.
The denounced product is a new type of white sausage creation.
The Facebook user's photo shows the packaging, which reads: "Wiesn delicacies: hearty white sausage in mustard sauce with mashed potatoes and wine sauerkraut".
Other users understood the outrage.
One wrote: "The compilation itself sounds creepy.
I can't imagine anyone in Bavaria buying that."
But ALDI Süd also answered.
The ALDI customer made it very clear on Facebook what he thought of the reinterpretation of the Weißwurst.

ALDI Süd responds to Facebook users: "It's a shame you're not so enthusiastic"
The discount retail chain did not accept the user's accusation.
"Too bad you're not so enthusiastic about our product," the social media department wrote under the post.
Be aware that this is not how white sausages are normally prepared.

"But we wanted to offer you a new interpretation of the dish," says the comment.
Finally, it is pointed out that normal white sausages are also on offer.
It remains unclear whether the customer can still be brought back with it – in any case, he no longer replied to the comment.
