Eating generic food?

[Liteice]

Does anyone here have to eat generic food to save money? Because I do. My family shops at this place called Save-A-Lot which sells really cheap knock off products that are watered down vershions of name brand food. Anyone ever try Dr.Pop or fruity diamonds?

Yuck.

What about you guys?

Tell your parents to get real jobs.

There's honestly no fucking difference between that type of shit aside from brand names that mean nothing.

[Drugged]

No, because my parents have decent paying jobs. The closest thing to generic food I eat is the Wal-mart brand soda and pop-tarts.

[CosmicDebris]

I consider most of the stuff they sell in "regular" stores to be generic, so yeah.

[MachSchneller]

No-Name brand... When I went to "extra-foods" I saw a yellow box that said... Cola. That's it, no price, nutrition or label, just cola. Also, a rip-off of SPAM called Klik (???) That really sounds like Ku Klux Klan..?

[Legionnaire-X]

Sometimes. Most generic brands are just as good as the name brand but some are just horrid.

[JKMonkey]

I do, like instead of buying Pepsodent or Colgate toothpaste, I'll buy "Advanced Teeth Whitening paste"

[Excursius]

I breathe generic air, and I have a generic brand life. WOOOOT

[HWDog35]

Tofu sucks.

[Ericho]

No, I don't eat generic food but it doesn't really sound that bad anyway, but I guess I'd have to try it.

[Figter]

Nope, PURE swedish foooooood!

and cookies

[GearShifter]

Well, I wouldn't be surprised if they sold you spam meat. Do they do that as well?

My Mom works hard as all fuck and has to support my ass along with my little brother and sister. The reason I have to eat bad food is because my dad sucks ass, to be honest.

I know man, I'm just torturing myself over here. I crave to feel the taste of all natural mountain springs. I just need one more fix dammit!

...Oh God, what have I done. I've been clean for two years.

[Schizo-Sephy]

We are always using generic brand food at my house. I really see no difference. As long as I get my food in me without any side-effects I'm good. Anyway I need the money...

[Paean]

Yup, I loves me some generic brand Cocoa Pebbles called "Cocoa Rockies".

Zach, the reason I brought you in this room with all of your family members is because... they've staged an intervention. They feel that your abusive drinking is a serious problem and you must quit. If you wish to live under their support, you must agree to the following conditions: you will stop drinking bottled water. And you will go to rehab at the pumping station and water tower facilities for 3 months.

What will it be, Zach, Your water.... or your family?

[TheZachs]

...Alright. I'll go. I love you guys.

4 months later, Zach relapsed.

[mariomusicmaker1]

Well I like to think of my self as a person who dose not care about the brand name ( unless im buying speakers or music equipment >:( ) but the no name things are usualy far inferior to the more expensive stuff, ESPECIALLY cola vs coke and no name peperoni vs delicio pizza.

No, eating enough for 5 people.

Damn, only 5? You must be starving.

We usually get store brand cereal because it's exactly the same and costs less just to save money. We aren't poor at all though.
