Default Special oil for lawnmower?

I knew there was something. Maybe I'll buy the oil at the supermarket, where
it's a buck more expensive than at the auto parts store. That should solve
the problem.

The manual for my Honda 4 stroke mower contains the usual advice about
oil (paraphrased here): You can use oil that meets blah-blah-blah specs,
but we recommend Honda oil. When I see stuff like this, I assume they
mean "If you visit the mower shop, you might buy something else so we
think you should go there for oil". I like supporting local businesses,
like the one that sold me the mower, but could there be anything special
about Honda oil?
