My favorite brands:
The generics. The ones on sale. Great Value.
I’m not much of a brand person. I shop at discount stores. I love snacks from brands I’ve never heard of before. Strange gummie candies. Weird yogurts made of odd ingredients. I’m a cautiously adventurous eater. So I’ll see crackers made from crickets and think- I need to try those.
The one brand that I’m (somewhat) loyal to these days is Tide lol. It actually works really well. Especially the powder. For the longest time, I felt like it was too expensive. Plus I was a housewife, homeschooling two kids, and I made everything, including attempts at laundry detergent. It was a horrible failure. So Tide is the one thing that I get on a regular basis. But do I associate with the brand? Nah. Not really.
Mostly, I associate with the outliers. The brands that are here today, gone tomorrow. The small companies. They are my favorites.
