>>522059681it's not the same thing. one has a girl with a umbrella, and this made the costumer feel nicer having it
>>522059681the cheapest table salt (the store brand) is usually the lowest quality crap. maybe this bitch just doesn't know salt as well as she things she does.
>>522059681That is AI spam.
>70 cent differenceSo brand is pretty power-LESS if you really think about it. Four hundred million dollars in marketing upsold this guy for… seventy fucking cents. That’s the less than the tax on an actual item, not one that’s competitively priced. This story is also a fabrication, no one really gives a shit what salt they are using. Women like to bicker about how they save money or they need something kosher but in reality what they purchase is dictated by a budget…. The budget for this whore’s frivolity was 70 cents. Marketing is powerless. Again, imagine just the price of the ink they waste printing this package. Seventy cents.
>>522060006store brand sweet cream, for example, has 78% butterfat and the rest water. that's 2% more water than the standard US 80%+ butterfat for sweet cream. they cut corners somewhere to get them that cheap. you can calculate it by dividing the serving size in grams with the fat content in grams to get the butterfat percentage.
>>522059681A projected fear of shame from others if they're seen with the cheaper poverty-branded product, even though more often than not the poverty-brand is the highest quality.

>>522059681Some products are actually the best by brand thus when you make a particular recipe, yes you buy that. For other things it's irrelevant. I find the output from different brands of noodles is interesting, some are stickyer some are gooeyer. Pic rel is an example, if marinating obviously, but if you are just making sandwiches for kids? I stress, for somethings there is no difference.
>>522060006Yeah I started using road salt because I was a cheap bastard and figured it's the same shit since it's still 100% NaCl. Then I started noticing grits and shit in the bottom of the pot when I boiled water for my pasta so I went back to buying the flaky jew salt. It's one of the few things they do right. I wish other companies made flaky salt, but it is what it is.
>>522059866Based. Brand loyalty is for suckers and consoomers
>>522060182sure, and im glad that there are the cheapest choices on offer. sometimes you need that option and sometimes the store brand stuff is just fine. i buy the cheapest packs of salt for preserving and stuff...but dont like it for use on the table. the slightly more expensive stuff has a nicer texture etc.
>>522059681>Spending $2 over $1.29What JEW is getting bent out of shape over $0.71?

>>522059681The morton salt is legitimately better than any store brand salt I've ever tried. Imagine being such a retard you don't understand the concept of paying 55 cents more for a vastly superior product.
>>522060335Yeah that's one thing I'm still going to use road salt for and that's brining. I'm throwing the water out anyway and all the grits will be at the bottom so who cares.

>>522059681I have a great example of consumer retardation. Leica cameras. Recently they released a "new" digital compact camera costing $2k.

The original Panasonic can be had second hand for $500. Leica is like the camera industry's answer to Iphone, except even more overpriced and retarded.

>>522060409could be a rounding error. but it's legally required to be 80% butterfat to have "butter" on the label. 11/14= 78.57%. 12/14=85.7% storebrand sweet cream vs a brand name

>>522063407cellulose is saw dust
>>522063264To add to this point, I am the same guy as in OP. I buy 2x more expensive salt just because it has only one (1) ingredient: salt. No Exxx bullshit. At least as long as EU legislation works that is.

>>522063715>wood not plantsWhat do you think a tree is anon?
>>522059681He thought: 75 cents more for a trusted brand over an unknown producer with unknown quality is a prudent choice. It’s not like he’s saving $20.
>>522059681This bitch is retarded. There are all sorts of things to take into consideration like where they source the materials and what type of processing is done. Yes the ingredient list may be the same but you also may be ingesting trace amounts of other shit left behind during production.
>>522059681Symbols speak to deeper layers most don't tune to. That's not just a girl with an umbrella it's a symbol of preservation in chaos. I only buy Morton's salt too because of it. Fact is I don't trust great value anything.
>>522059681What a dumb example.A can of salt lasts me years.
>>522062471It's less than a fucking dollar for name brand salt. I don't rent. I own a home, already paid off.I'm 40. Grow the fuck up and learn what actually matters.This is more retarded than avocado toast articles. It's fucking eighty cents.

>>522059681We all have boomer marketing degrees that ended up being useless. That's what we all have. Brands don't mean shit, only quality.
>>522059866This. If I am still loyal to a brand it's because they have never ever changed their product or what they stand for. The nanosecond they do it's into the trash it goes.
>>522059681Oftentimes the store brand has additives or some other shit that allows it to be sold more cheaply. You DO get what you pay for.

Some brands are worth what you pay. But yes normies do believe in brands.I had an argument with an old coworker about paracetamol (autism pills for you tylenol americans). He was paying upwards of 5 bucks a pack for the name brand, he refused to believe that the 50 cent packet (that had more doses) was as effective. Like nigger, it's a fucking chemical compound, it's the same shit. Maybe if you're a girl who cant swallow pills and need those coated ones, but if you aren't gay just buy the cheaper ones.
I wouldn't fuck around with salt you could have heavy metal contamination or some African's piss all over it
>>522059918>Apple fanaticsDon't really exist. You fell victim to a marketing ploy.

>>522075785
>>522059681Branding has inherent value.In order to maintain a brand, the company first and foremost must retain its reputation.This implies a higher level of quality control, as any scandal from say, heavy metal contamination, would harm the brand and reduce the premium it produces.Meanwhile, no-name brands can weather scandal simply by changing to a new brand. No history means no trust from the consumer.It doesn't matter that they're the same product now. The concern is whether they will be the same product tomorrow.And that is why we willingly - and rationally - pay extra for branded goods.

>>522060006This. There's often no difference in product quality,.so for some things yeah it is dumb to spend more. But otjer products the cheaper stuff barely resembles what you're supposed to be buying, and brand name really pays off. Kinda jewy to not wanna pay 70 cents more for something if the quality os actually better
>>522059681There's something about the salt, it's probably a global conspiracy to control human eating patterns and prop up fast food industries globally.There's a reason entries are bland and desert is sweet as well.If you eat sweet before the meal, you don't need as much. So they feed you corn chips with a specific kind of salt on them. It makes you more hungry so you keep ordering more food. And they give you sweet desert after so your body craves salt.Don't go down the salt rabbit hole, or do. But you won't see eating or the entirety of the food industry the same way afterwards.

>>522059681My husband went online yesterday with "stress relief" on the list.He compared the generic import — The Dickstroyer 3000 ($19.99) — to the Fleshlight Helium FX ($89.95).Same size. Same silicone. 350% price difference. (He has an analytical mind.)He knew this was a pure price vs. brand test.And yet... he said he "couldn't do it".He had to have the discreet flashlight casing.That's the power of brand — imagery, heritage, trust, suction.It's not just a masturbator anymore.We all have brands like that, the ones we can't not buy.What's one synthetic orifice you're loyal to, even when you know the alternatives are the same?(Fun fact: The Fleshlight was created in the 90s to show that "pleasure doesn't need a partner". Everyone's TPE sleeve does that now, but somehow we still want the brand. That's the enduring power of iconography - symbols that outlast the features they were built to sell.)
