Part of the fun of shopping at Aldi is that you never know what treasures you’ll find in the novelty section, from clothing to home decor to giant floating sticks of butter.
Yes, you read that correctly, as the grocery chain has rolled out a collection of pool noodles inspired by popular food items.
The BigMouth inflatable pool noodles come in two designs in the Aldi Finds aisle, a sub sandwich and a stick of salted butter, and it seems like the latter has really gotten the attention of Aldi fans after the chain posted a photo of the novelty find, calling it “summer’s hottest accessory.”

“I don’t have a pool but I need this,” said one fan on Instagram as others agreed, calling the $9.99 pool toy a “brilliant” item and teasingly asking “Do you have it in unsalted?”
“All I need now is the pool,” declared a third, while another couldn’t tell if it was a prank, asking, “Chat is this real.”
More jokes rolled in, with fans asking, “Is this not a buttered noodle?” and declaring that they “can’t believe it’s not butter.”
“Paula Dean has entered the chat,” teased another commenter, referencing the cooking personality known for her love of butter.
Land O’Lakes got in on the action as well, dropping into the comments to say, “We couldn’t agree more, this is the hottest accessory.”
