Aldi are reconsidering the packaging of kids' pens - after a customer complained that they were 'gendered for no reason'. Aldi claimed they take customer feedback 'very seriously' and said they will take Emma's complaint about the gendered pens 'into account when planning future ranges and product specifications'. "It's the exact same product, the exact same packaging and everything. Emma believes that Aldi should pull the product from their shelves - and it has made her reconsider shopping with them in the future. An Aldi spokesperson said: "We take customer feedback very seriously and will take this into account when planning future ranges and product specifications."
