Its called margins, some items have higher margins, or profits than others.

Great value brand dairy is packaged at the same plants that package a few name brand items, yet which costs more? Most of the times you are paying for the name on the label. I will admit some items name brand is the only way to go. imo.
One thing where I will not skimp is on barbecue sauce. It's gotta be KC Masterpiece.

Not in Oklahoma!
Cake, that's another thing priced through the roof: cakes, donuts, pies and pastries. Just sugar, shortening and starch. I should have be a NABISCO crackers or Sara Lee executive: I'm entirely in the wrong racket.
You can bake your own cake. And you can make it with quality ingredients!

You'll have to run the oven though!


Shortening is not a quality ingredient! 🤮

Most people have flour, sugar, baking powder, eggs, milk and vanilla at home already!

Is that by chance the Justin Wilson recipe for a pineapple upside down cake? I've been meaning to try that one.
