Yes if I had a dollar for everyone who recommends Habitant soups - nah owned by Campbells. The same with Old Dutch chips - owned by a company in Minnesota even if the chips are far more popular in Canada than in the US. Finding alternatives requires research, creativity, and sometimes paying more but that additional money often results in improved quality - e.g. Sprague soups vs Habitant. Sometimes you get to pay even less - Italpasta and Primo are brands I would have ignored that are actually good. It’s been a bit of a remix as far as our weekly shopping goes but it makes our purchases more informed and deliberate which saves us money.
