Snack lovers, mark your calendars: July 8 just got a whole lot sweeter (and healthier). Aldi is dropping Southern Grove Stuffed Dates in the Aldi Finds aisle, and this one checks every box — grab-and-go, no added sugar, and somehow also available in a chocolate-dipped version for when you want dessert energy instead of snack energy. At $4.99 a bag, this might be the easiest ‘yes’ in Aldi’s whole July lineup.
What Exactly Are Aldi’s Stuffed Dates?
Here’s the deal: each bag comes packed with 10 individually wrapped dates, and every single one is stuffed with a whole roasted almond or cashew. That’s it — that’s the whole ingredient list doing the heavy lifting. No added sugar, no mystery fillers, just naturally sweet, chewy dates wrapped around a satisfying, crunchy nut. It’s the kind of snack that feels indulgent but actually holds up if you’re trying to eat a little cleaner this summer.
Two simple ingredients, one seriously satisfying bite — and Aldi somehow found a way to make it feel fancy.
And if plain nut-stuffed dates aren’t decadent enough for you, Aldi’s got a second act: dates stuffed with whole roasted almonds and then dunked in dark chocolate. Same $4.99 price tag, same Southern Grove branding, dramatically more chocolate. Basically, Aldi found a way to give us both the ‘trying to be good’ option and the ‘treat yourself’ option on the same shelf.
Why This Aldi Find Is Worth Rushing For
If you’ve shopped the Aldi Finds aisle before, you already know the drill: these limited-time drops move fast, and ‘sold out’ can happen within days of hitting shelves. Stuffed dates have also been having a real moment lately thanks to viral snack trends built around dates and nut butter, so we wouldn’t be surprised if this one disappears even quicker than usual. If you loved Aldi’s stuffed waffles or couldn’t resist those Stracciatella cookie sandwiches, this is another Aldi Finds drop worth adding to your shopping list before it vanishes.
At under five bucks a bag, these stuffed dates are also a great reminder of why Aldi keeps winning over budget-conscious shoppers. We recently compared grocery prices across Aldi, Costco, Trader Joe’s, and Walmart, and snacks like this are exactly the kind of small, everyday win that adds up over a month of grocery runs.
How to Snag Them Before They’re Gone
Southern Grove Stuffed Dates hit Aldi shelves on July 8 for $4.99 per bag, in both the Almond & Cashew and Dark Chocolate-Dipped Almond varieties. Since Aldi Finds are first-come, first-served with no restocks once they’re gone, your best move is to swing by early in the week they launch — ideally within the first day or two. Toss a bag (or three) in your cart, keep one in your bag for an afternoon pick-me-up, and stash the rest in the pantry before they disappear for good.
