Former MasterChef star Steph De Sousa has found herself in hot water after releasing a video sharing her top Aldi shopping tips.

In a video posted to both her Instagram and TikTok, De Sousa revealed her love for limited-edition items, showing viewers her favourite products and where to find them.

"Who else gets that Aldi-rush when the seasonal and limited-time-only range hits the shelves?" she captioned her video.

"I swear I know these aisles better than my own living room!" she wrote. "It's like a treasure hunt each season! This time, I've got some absolute gems to share with you!"

Among some of the items De Sousa introduced to fans was a chicken pad Thai meal kit, bacon bites and tuna fillets.

Onion bhajis and slow cooked duck also made the list, but the Aussie mum didn't stop there, also sharing tips for those with more of a sweet tooth.

For those wanting a sweet treat to possibly follow a savoury meal, the chef suggested Indulge's Crème Brûlée Ice-Cream or a peanut and caramel chocolate block sold by the food giant.

Despite her videos collectively reaching over 160,000 fans who were excited to take advantage of the Aussie mum's cheat sheet, some were not pleased.

"You need to take this down asap!!!!" one wrote. "That pad Thai is almost impossible to find – we don't need more people knowing about it!!!"

"How DARE you alert the masses to my fav chocolate!" another scolded playfully. "Shelves empty at my Aldi and I'm blaming you."

Others in the comments revealed their heartbreak at not having the same limited-edition or seasonal items available at their local stores.

"Wahhh Tasmania needs to sort their sh-t out and get me an Aldi," one wrote.

"A store or two in Tasmania, one North and one South, would be good," another added. "People ask about it all the time on social media."

"Aldi don't distribute to WA like over east," a third claimed. "No duck fat potatoes for instance"

Even international social media users got on board.

"I don't see these in Aldi Coral Springs Florida," a devastated American wrote.
