Matthew Cropper, 54, went to Marks & Spencer for a £9.50 Colin the Caterpillar birthday cake — but when he had a pop at Aldi's Cuthbert on social media, he got a hilarious reply
Aldi has cheekily responded to a bold Marks & Spencer shopper after he declared his allegiance to only the 'best and original' caterpillar cake on his birthday.
This chocolate sponge roll, laden with chocolate buttercream, is not just any birthday cake but an iconic one. The delectable dessert had previously sparked a notorious social media spat between M&S and Aldi following the budget friendly supermarket's introduction of their own version, Cuthbert the Caterpillar, for £4.99.
Aldi, known for its spirited comebacks on social media, didn't let this comment slide under the radar. Their social media team playfully fired back with: "Grow up Matthew x."
