Name Brands

As regular shoppers at Aldi stores. Name brands usually are not important to us. There are a few things that we shop for a particular name brand. Jif peanut butter is one of them. I buy BerryHill/Aldi’s brand for baking. I have been in a pinch and have run out of the almighty Jif, and tried to substitute the BerryHill in it’s place. Notice I said, “I have tried” and every time I have done so I have been called out. It just isn't the same. Miracle Whip, Heinz Ketchup, Kool-Aid, and bread are the other things we have to go to Walmart or the local grocery store for.
Questions:

• Is there something on your grocery list that has to be a certain name brand? If so, What is it?
• Have you ever tried the generic equivalent for this product?
