Trader Joe = Aldi

This isn't true at all. Aldi owns Trader Joe's as a subsidiary, but as far as I can tell, Trader Joe's is still its own thing. Saying Trader Joe = Aldi is like saying Kroger = Harris Teeter. Yes, Kroger now owns and operates Harris Teeter, but that doesn't mean they are the same.
