In some cases, I think it's true, like in <i>some</i> brands of clothes - not all. There are some brands that I can depend upon to be cut on the fabric right, that have decent seams, and that don't get wrecked by putting them in the washer and dryer. <br /><br />Other things, like food, often are Cranberry Morninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10758563068581561194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6159183067214089399.post-78181695497822404422010-06-27T06:01:28.327-07:002010-06-27T06:01:28.327-07:00Ha ha!

When my kids were younger I had to buy the same brand of the item advertised on TV or that their friend had bought. I had always bought generic because I knew that these food items were made a the same plant as the more expensive ones. Try and explain this to young children.
