My Diary

I only write what I don’t care if the world reads. It’s sort of similar to a captain entering information in the captain’s log. Alas, I don’t have great sea battles and sunken treasure to write about, but an occasional anecdote does get entered if I’m feeling up to it. Check it out! Or don’t. I’m easy like that.

Quaker v Kroger - Non name brands often have a better price, but sometimes the sacrifice in taste isn't worth it. With Kroger, it depends what you buy. I had a box of oatmeal packages and they didn't taste too great. So I bought Quaker to compare. I did two blind taste tests and Quaker won both times, though it wasn't a runaway hit and I really had to focus on what I was tasting. To be honest, I don't "love" oatmeal anyway, but it's fine on occasion. But the taste and texture did seem to be more pleasing, so no more Kroger for oatmeal. I'll just buy Quaker. Though only when it's on sale.
