One exception to this rule:
Stop & Shop Honey Bunches of Oats with Almond - much better than the national brand version.

Laundry Detergent. But I do find that anything from Costco's Kirkland brand is pretty great quality.

We don't have one on Long Island, but I do find that I like the Wegmans store brand of alot of product just as much, if not more, than brand names.

Re: SPINOFF to store brand items. What items are NOT the same as the brand name?
Heinz Ketchup only
I can not do the store brand jelly. I recently tried it and it seemed really sweet.
Shampoo (only because I need a special kind with my hair color)
Nothing else jumps out at me.

Kitty Litter
Paper Towel...sorry nothing beats Viva or Bounty...store brands don't even come close.
Cold Cuts - Nothing like Boars Head
Soda - Sorry generic soda totally tastes different than Pepsi or Coke...not awful but definitely different

Re: SPINOFF to store brand items. What items are NOT the same as the brand name?
There are only three for me....
Waffles - either I love EGO or the store brand is horrible!
Pasta Sauce - Store brands are horrible in this. I rather spend the extra money.
Soda - Can't change my Diet Coke. I find store brands to be very flat.
Other then that I am store brand for most everything these days.

Re: SPINOFF to store brand items. What items are NOT the same as the brand name?
Heniz Ketchup
Soda - brand name only (prefer diet coke but, don't mind diet pepsi)
Boars Head Coldcuts
Shampoo/Conditioner - I tried generic once and it didn't do it for me
That's about it - I buy a lot of store brand things - some of them I like more than regular brand.

ENGLISH MUFFINS! Never have I ever found the store brand to have an many nooks and cranies as the original Thomas' brand.
Also, OJ... I'm loyal to my Tropicana. Every other brand (store brand or not) is not as good.

Re: SPINOFF to store brand items. What items are NOT the same as the brand name?
I agree with almost all of the previously mentioned except maybe water.
I also have to buy name brand cheeses like Pollio etc. And butter has to be brand name...it def tastes better.
Also, garbage bags... and salad dressing.

Re: SPINOFF to store brand items. What items are NOT the same as the brand name?
I agree only Boars Head. I have tried so many others and it is not the same.
I also agree with Ketchup.
Somethings I like better when they are the store brand. Target has that Archer Farms brand and everything I try I really like.
