if food is too cheap I wonder where the
hell it came from.

Have you considered why other outlets are so expensive? The major stores
make a big deal of rolling back their prices but they are at least 30
percent more expensive for comparable items than their 'down market'
competitors.

Why does a bottle of Coke cost pounds whereas an own brand cost 15p a
litre. Quality or just the customer paying for all the advertising?

I shop at Tescos, Aldi, Lidl and they all sell rubbish as well as having
good quality goods at reasonable or cheap prices. Cherry pick the items
you want from each store.

I don't buy Coke or any of that sugary crud anyhow - I know you are
paying for the name/advertising there. I was referring to products
like meat, fish, eggs, milk etc. I don't care for brand names either.
