My friends always joke with me about my fetish with name brand items and they hope I end up rich or marry a rich man lol.

There's something about generic products that seems shady to me i.e publix, walmart and walgreens brand products.

Even though I know it wouldn't matter, I just can't buy generic stuff.


As the thread title stated, post name brand items that you wouldn't buy in Generic form.

Name Brand: NATURE'S OWN HONEY WHEAT BREAD




Generic: Publix honey wheat bread





I heard they taste the same.

D'you wanna get us sued for libel?

It's not right to diss a brand in public.

Having said that, I'm an absolute sucker for MotherCare baby and Boots brand on baby products. I also love Huggies nappies die! Must be something wrong with moi as I'm always out looking for good deals on 'em nappies. I've got nearly six months supply stocked at home

What I can't stand? Those cheap tacky supermarket branded disposable nappies that don't stick if you get a little oil on the tapes. (One brand in particular comes to mind but I won't name-and-shame here)

Are yu serious? Sue for Libel?

Ok, maybe I won't get into the specifics.

@Diapers, the worst ones are the rashing-inducing diapers.

Cheap stuff makes me suspicious of how "authentic" they are. lol

It's like buying cocoa puffs Flakes instead of chocolate puffs. Shady generic companies lol.
