Are there brands that you used to buy that are no longer in your local supermarket? What do you think of all these 'home brands'? Are they just as good as the named brands, are they cheaper, or are you still hankering after something in particular that just seems to have disappeared from the shelves? Give us your opinion.

There are that many home brands on the shelf these days it's getting harder to find the name brands that you used to buy, the Home brands are ok if you need to save money, however they are just profiting of the research of the name brands. When was the last time a Home brand came out with a NEW product, never, they wait until the name brand does all the research & development then come out with their own. We need to remember that there is a reason why we pay more for the name brands & that is they have put the money up for the research & development of the product, if it doesn't work, they are the ones that are out of pocket.
Please remember to support our Farmers by only buying Brand name Milk, home brands only pay the Farmers a very small amount for their Milk.
