We have a large grocery chain up here that sells name brands next to
it's own no-name products. The similarities are obvious. I've worked
in factories where only the labels were changed.

Think twice before you try to make the expensive "Borden" brand milk
go away by buying "the other" brand right next to it... there's a 90%
chance that it comes from the same factory, and off of the same
delivery truck.  Obviously, it all comes from cows. :)  I do contract
work for Borden so I see this all the time, people setting the
high-priced Borden gallon down and picking up the much cheaper brand
instead, even brands marked with the store name.  I won't say any
more. ...
