game to try house brands

I hardly ever pay attention to house brands simply because their plain, no-frills packaging have never caught my attention enough for me to take an interest in them. Lately I’ve noticed though that many people seem to be opting for house brands as they are the cheaper option.

I’ve heard they don’t taste as good but I just have to see for myself. So I bought Tesco’s house brand spaghetti to try. I cooked it today and found it contains more starch and the cooking time is longer. Tastewise, it’s true, it doesn’t taste as good as the regular brands that I’ve tried.

But then, with rising food costs, I reckon it’s time to shed my brand and store loyalties. I’m game to try a different brand, a different store whichever offers a cheaper, comparable product. No harm trying, right?
