Sulfoxaflor- though this pesticide does not have adverse side effects to humans, it is highly toxic to bees which are needed to keep the balance of the environment
Fipronil- can cause skin irritation, nausea, sweating, headache, vomiting, weakness, stomach pain and seizures.
Imidacloprid- this pesticide has low toxicity effects on mammals but can highly affect insects which includes helpful ones such as bees.
Because of this action, Aldi sets the bar higher for other US and European companies who are still allowing the use of these pesticides. But the company’s aim does not stop there. Here are a few other great things you can expect from Aldi:
Around 90% of their sales are their private-label products, and they have removed certified synthetic colors, MSG and partially hydrogenated oils from these products.
The company will introduce and expand their SimplyNature line which are purely organic products, as well as their lifeGfree products which are gluten-free.
Their fresh and organic meat produce will be expanded which will include their “Never Any !” products. This product line prides in not containing any animal by-products, antibiotics, hormones and other additives.
The milk, yogurt, sour cream, and other dairy products will also be free from any growth hormones.
The company will also expand their high-end foods.
All these changes that Aldi aims to accomplish are in the name of keeping their customers and the environment in a healthier state. It has truly become one of the best companies that answers not only for the profit but for the betterment of their customers and the environment. Because of this, you can be assured that you will have a store you can finally trust.
