Aldi shoppers were in stitches after spotting a sneaky dig at Marks and Spencer in their latest Christmas advert.
The supermarkets went head to head in 2021 after M&S launched legal action against Aldi, claiming the bargain store’s Cuthbert the Caterpillar cake is too similar to Colin. M&S wanted to pull Cuthbert from shelves after saying the cake infringes the trademark of Colin and "rides on the coat-tails" of its reputation.
The food giant had gone on to claim that the similarity of both products leads customers to believe they are of the same standard. However, it was confirmed a deal had been made, ending the legal dispute.
