I’ll never understand why people buy most branded supermarket produce.
Why the fack would you do that when you can spend probably half the money on a facking *identical* non-branded product? Heinz ketchup is a perfect example.
I bet there’s not onecunt on the British Isles who could tell the difference between Heinz and Smartprice ketchup in a blind taste test.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That is branding for you per se. If it didn't work companies would not do it. Its psychology I guess based on comfort. We buy Batts ketchup from Lidl. No taste difference at all
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah; despite knowing what it is and even having done it for a living at one point, I still don’t remotely understand how it works with such basic, low added value products
How are people so easily led? I mean, it isn’t a particularly sophisticated con-trick, is it? “Our ketchup tastes better!” We all to a man facking know that it doesn’t, but millions of people buy it anyway.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I used to work for a contract manufacturer that made food supplements (multivitamin and minerals, herbal tablets etc) for most supermarkets and some big brands. Most of the branded stuff was exactly the same as the non-branded stuff. Seven Seas Perfect 7 range for example, was the same ingredients and process as most supermarket multivitamin tablets, with the only difference being the colour of the tablet coating, the money they paid the contract manufacturer for regulatory extras and the packaging.
The only difference between things like Sainsburys premium own brand and basics range was the cost of the packaging and maybe the tablet coating colour. All antacid tablets are pretty much the same recipe too. There is no reason to buy branded stuff on those things.
The supermarkets own items are often made by the likes of kellogs n Heinz too
The only difference I find is the salt content

across six major supermarkets over a two-year period.
Heinz tomato ketchup sauce 460g +53%
Dolmio lasagne sauce 470g +47%

Dolmio bolognese original pasta sauce 500g +46%

Colman’s classic mint sauce 165g +44%
Colman’s horseradish sauce 136g +44%
Batchelors super noodles BBQ beef flavour 90g +43%
Hovis granary wholemeal 800g +43%
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's feckin grim and one would imagine companies will start letting people go next year
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Most food manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers are still making very tidy profits. I posted up on here a couple of weeks ago quotes from CEOs and finance chiefs at some of the big boys in the food industry about how they love a bit of inflation because they can use it to hide increases in their margins from customers: “Oh, sorry, Joe Public, we’ve had no choice but to whack our prices up…”
Heinz, for example, posted a $2bn *profit* for the last reported quarter alone, which is more or less the same as last year.
Hospitality will suffer as people forego restaurant, cafe, bar and pub trips.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think the retail sales number for Christmas and December may shed light on just how much people are hurting, or not.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A lot of the big boys will see sales volumes fall but revenue (and profits) maintained.

Didn't really need it explained to me, but of course he is correct.
The raison daitre of Black Friday is to get people to spend 50% that they wouldn't normally spend so it nets out agst the discounted prices
