Less products made in China , better guarantee, easier checkout and more flavorful food even better then the brand name quite often. Price can be half especially nuts, baked items and cereals.

My husband used to work for Malt-o-Meal (MOM brands). They make private label brands in addition to their bagged cereal. I would go to my local co-op and see the Three Sister brand (All natural) and laugh because it’s the exact same cereal as the bagged one for 3 times the price. The only difference was Three Sister’s didn’t have the vitamins sprayed on which made it less healthy than the cheaper bagged version.
