In our house, toilet paper has to be Andrex!!
Baked Beans have to be Heinz
Coffee has to be Nescafe
Tomato sauce has to be Heinz

Other than that, can't think of anything that has to be branded.

Nescafe Gold Blend De-caf, either Lenor or Comfort - no watery own versions, same with washing powders Ariel, Bold or Daz, bubble bath only Radox, disinfectant - only Dettol..............come to think of it, I don't think I use any 'own brands'...........lol.

I don't use any own brands I think the branded names do a grand job, so never had an excuse to change

Looks like there are a few common ones.

We too are Heinz for beans and tomato soup
Taco kit must be Old El Paso (dont even think about trying the tesco one its not nice!)
Cornflakes (of any sort) must be Kellogs
Velvet or Andrex loo roll lol
Cappuccino drink must be a can of Kenco Cappio! Mmmm
Crisps must be proper brand i.e Walkers
Yoghurts must be Muller
Ice lollys are Magnums mmmm especially the truffle one!

Dogs are not fussy though they wouldnt care where it came from, who it was made by, how much it cost or even in the labs case, how mouldy it is! :smt078 :smt081
