Which Generic Products are as good Name Brands?

Buying anything that says "Shop Rite" or "CVS" on it should come with a red stamp that says "white trash."

If spending less on a generic product that has the EXACT SAME INGREDIENTS as the more expensive national brand makes me white trash that's fine.

Medicine, virtually w/o exception.

Also, Kirkland (Costco brand) baby products - are excellent. The diapers are identical to Huggies Supreme, but the cartoon character isn't licensed. In 9 months of being a father, we've literally saved hundreds of dollars over name brands. So far, the baby's ass hasn't fallen off.

Costco in general has stated that they will not release a Kirkland Signature version of a product if it is not at least as good as the second place competitor in the field. I would buy nearly anything Costco brand because of this.

i think dairy products is arguably the worst possible choice for this. generic milk, generic cheese, generic ice cream...come on.

I'd separate milk from ice cream and cheese. Generic milk is fine by me. Generic cheese is 100% out of the question. Most cheese sold in a supermarket is out of the question. Yes, I'm a cheese snob.

What part of "Just about all of them." was confusing?

Aren't some generic products made by the same companies as the brand name ones?

Big,

Ibuprofen, but I still buy Advil. I don't know why.

Do they have generic liquigels? Are Advil liquigels actually better than regular Advil? (I think so.)
