Coke. I'm the person that when the waitstaff asks if Pepsi is okay when I ask for Coke orders water.
Here in the Midwest, I can tell milk brands apart. I'm not saying one brand is great and the other is terrible....I can just tell the difference.Milk?! How can milk be different?
Well I know as a kid when we visited family in Canada the milk tasted a lot better. But my comments are based on the situation here where various brands are processed by the same dairy, only the label is different.Here in the Midwest, I can tell milk brands apart.

I try not to drink too many sodas now, but when we go out I will still drink a Coke. I hate Pepsi too. Love my Coke. Will usually go with a Dr. Pepper instead of a Pepsi.Coke. I'm the person that when the waitstaff asks if Pepsi is okay when I ask for Coke orders water.
LOL. Sacramento used to be the tomato capital of the world. Multiple tomato canneries, all gone now. My dad worked at Bercut Richards cannery in the 1950's and early 1960's.I'm not brand conditioned to anything except Heinz ketchup.

Their brand was Sacramento Brand. My dad was always amused by brand loyalty in ketchup (or catsup). He took me to see them bottle ketchup. 1,000 cases of Sacramento Brand, then 1,000 cases of Del Monte, then 1,000 cases of Hunts, then 1,000 cases of some grocery store brand, then 1,000 cases of Heinz. All the ketchup came out of the same HUGE vat, only the bottle and labels were different. So I grew up with, and still buy what ever ketchup is cheapest.
All industrial production has shifted in my life time. Local production has shifted to centralized production because doing everything in one place is so much cheaper, that it even offsets shipping costs. So Heinz ketchup could all be coming from one plant now. Problem is, if there is a problem at that one plant, you have no other place to produce that product.That's why I used the word conditioned. That's the only one I'm conditioned to and my brain tells me doesn't taste the same as Hunts which my grandfather always bought. Ultimately I'm sure in reality there is little or no difference but brain conditioning says otherwise.
However I'm pretty sure Heinz in the US was produced in Pittsburgh originally and then it looks like Ohio and Iowa so not real sure about the Cali thing.
Oh I don't think I have tasted raw milk, interesting, lol. But even though thier ice cream and other products are just as awesome, I will eat other brands of such, but the milk, I will not wavier.
LOL. I'm old enough to remember when the jam inside used to ooze out of the Pop Tarts. Now there is so little jam in them, nothing oozes out.Kellogg's Pop Tarts!
not Toastems, or Pop Ups, or any another brand........it has to be Kellogg's Pop Tarts!
Yes! My DH is a Wisconsin boy and those are the only brats he’ll eat!ohnsonville Brats (though I shudder to think of the conditions for the animals - but I really love their taste best)
