I actually like store brand potato chips, I like the ones that are slightly burnt, and you seem to get more of those in the store brand.  I also like store brand cheese puffs.  Oh and I prefer the Malt-o-meal Cocoa Roo's over the Cocoa Puffs name brand.

Agreed on the Oreos!  I've also tried store brand - not good!

The Twist N Shout Walmart brand are actually oreos with generic packaging. I can eat those or Oreos. No other chocolate sandwich cookie will do.

Miracle Whip, Captain Crunch & Lucky Charms, Hunts Tomato Sauce, Wishbone French Dressing

Those are just a few. Wow, I didn't realize that I was so picky!    ROTF.gif

Bama light  or regular mayonnaise.  I would have said Arm & Hammer scoopable cat litter, but I've found some scented scoopable cat litter at Target that I like as well.  I like the Dollar General (Clover Valley) smooth peanut butter, but before that I thought that Jif was the only PB to buy.  I prefer Oreos, but will buy the double stuff Good Value version (those seem to be the closest).
