Bruce, I'd like to offer the following advice, which applies to almost all of life's decisions:

If one brand is "noticely better" than another, you should go 'up the ladder' to the point where you definitely won't say to yourself,"Yeah I saved a few cents or bucks, but now I wish I had gone the one step more."

You save a little at one point in time, but have to live with the choice you made for a long time.

I apply this philosophy to the important choices, like Pepsi, Heinz ketchup, Philadelphia cream cheese, and Duke's mayonnaise.

Larry

P.S. Duke's is a local brand made by the C. F. Sauer Co. here in Richmond. If anybody wants to try it, let me know. I'd be glad to buy you a jar, and ship it to you (I won't profit, but will ask for postage)
