Best Choice sucks because AWG has minimal focus on developing their store brand due to so many different chains of stores pulling from their warehouses.

Shop at Aldi, however, and you'll see almost no brands you've ever seen before.

The one time I found a store brand that just wasn't worth the savings was when I tried buying pizza dough in a can that was store brand instead of the Pilsbury I usually got. I saved over $1.50, but the dough cooked into a hard, inedible crust for the delicious pizza I planned to eat for dinner.

Most of the time, you will find that the brand manufacturer that is also producing the store brand is the number 2 or 3 brand in the category. It makes sense to get into the store brand because while you may cannibalize some of your own business, you're taking more business away from your toughest competition who has the higher selling label.
