Now, what about Trader Joe's brands? Are they too cheap and dangerous for you? Cause they're in the same family.
Something else along those lines is that some of the very same products you see at Trader Joe's are also at Aldi's, just in different boxes and usually much cheaper.
Gary, it is absolutely your right to by your kids all the name brand crap you want. It is also our right to make fun of you for spending twice the money on the exact same product.
I will admit there are certain things that I buy the name brand stuff simply because i think it tastes better. Cinnamon rolls comes to mind. The pillsbury ones seem to cook more consistently than the shop n shave or aldis ones. That said, to simply assume your 'buying the best for your kids' because its name brand makes me laugh and makes you look like quite the wanna be elitist.
