It is exactly like that.
It is much worse if I have my husband with me. He grabs lots of junk that we shouldn't eat.

Most of the time the items are made by the same company, just packaged under different brand names.
There are a few store brand/off brand items that aren't as good as the brand name stuff.
Kraft mac-n-cheese & Chef Boy ar Dee are better than the store brands we have here.

At the moment all I can think of is some of the medicines.
Example: Wal-mart has a store brand called Equate which has many different products, they don't manufacture all those medicines. They get the from the same place as the companies who put out products like Aleve & Immodium & Advil. Most of the time the products look exactly the same, color & size, just different stamps on them.
We even had one of the managers in Sams club confirm this.

My mind it too tired to come up with a better example right now.
I either need to go back to sleep for a while or get something to eat.
