What common grocery item(s) is it absolutely fine to buy the cheap/unbranded version of?

Interesting. Outside of chips, I've had a lot of luck with Private Selection (Kroger's no name brand). I've had quality issues with Food Lion and Walmart's perishables, but not as often with Kroger. Kroger's non perishables don't seem to be much different than Walmart's though.

Private Selection isn't bad, I was referring to Kroger brand as in it actually says Kroger, which is a suffering I wish on no one. It's also worth noting that Private Selection is a substantial bump in price over plain Kroger brand.

Still pretty cheap, but yeah. I've had little from the Kroger line that I'd buy again, so that's fair enough.
