11. Generally, it depends on the product

The only shoes that I wear are Skechers. They're high quality and this brand is high on the comfort level for me.

Clothing, it doesn't matter.

I'm loyal to Gold Bond lotion. I'll take about any brand of over the counter pain reliever.


The only brands of marinara sauce I'll buy and consume are Franceso Rinaldi and Bertolli. In my regular grocery store the Franceso Rinaldi is frequently on sale for $1.49 with flyer coupon and or buy 2 for $4 so I buy that brand the most often.

I only purchase Jimmy Dean tubed pork sausage.

Aldi's sells Cabot Vermont Seriously Sharp Cheddar Cheese (my favorite cheese). I once picked up marinara sauce at Aldi's while I was getting the Cabot cheese. I ended up tossing the marinara sauce. It didn't taste good at all. I also got Aldi's tube pork sausage once and I ended up throwing that right in the trash as well. I'd rather spend extra money on higher quality tasting goods.

I'll buy any brand of packaged walnuts.

I'm one of "those people" where you could blindfold me and give me A&W Root Beer, Mug Root Beer and Barqs Root Beer. I could tell you once I got to the Barqs Root Beer because I think it tastes awful. I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between A&W or Mug however because both brands are pleasant and don't taste "off" to me.


Even when I'm in ketosis, I can generally get away with consuming a 2 count of Reece's peanut butter cup every so often coming in at 32 grams of carbs. Yes, you read that correctly. I don't always behave and sometimes I'm not always strict with myself. I have yum yum weaknesses too!


I use to be loyal to Chevrolet, General Motors and then Ford. I think my loyalty to these brands are over with.

I'll see how many problems I have with this Mazda after 7 years and how long it lasts me. My Grand Prix (General Motors) lasted me for 15 years but it started giving me problems as soon as I paid it off.

I'm long winded today! Shut up, Niagara!
