Things can also be more expensive because of shipping location. My thing is I dont base quality on price. Because its just one factor. The best thing to base quality on it the food itself. Taste, health (if thats you thing), how well it keeps, etc. Id rather not eat something I think taste worse just because it cost more. I also wouldnt pay more for something when I can get the same thing for a couple bucks cheaper because its the store brand, but taste exactly the same... You can make something cheaper and still get a profit, but you get to a point where you can't make something at a certain quality and still make a profit. Other than homemade, I have never had a pizza for under $10 that I would say was "high quality" - something is always off with it: either it's too doughy (Pizza Hut), it's under seasoned (Dominos), or has a multitude of problems with it (the pizza from the 7-11). And we're starting to go all over the place. Is the topic about restaurants or food from a grocery store, since the comparisons between store band and name brand being made available in the same store is not a fair comparison to a chain brand restaurant to say a mom-pop restaurant. In a grocery store, the store brands get to ride on the advertising that the name brand does. They save money by not advertising so when they put their item on the shelf they can offer a closer quality because they have your attention right there in the store, with that price tag that's cheaper. You already went to the store. It's very different from restaurants that need to get you in the door first and aren't offering their competitors products right there. That said, I would argue there are many products where the quality of the cheaper brand is no where close to that of the name brand. Most Cereals, Boxed food (like Mac & cheese), and soda are some examples where you might as well just spend the extra buck. But we need to decide the location of where the tacos/pizza are coming from - because if we are now moving into grocery stores, we might as well get into the discussion of people cooking at home, but I think that's starting to get into moving goalposts territory --- 3DS FC Scott 0533-5781-3558 Pokemon: Pidgey, Woobat, Rufflet <cite>aurick79 posted [p:928866061] in Two tacos ...
