Items that you have to use/buy/eat specific brands

Tommy-G · 10-18-2022, 06:45 AM

I had an epiphany and realized I'm kind of a pain in the ass.
Somethings I am extremely particular about:
Colgate toothpaste
Tropicana OJ-no pulp
Starbucks Pike place coffee

What says you? What are yours?

Mason Hatcher · 10-18-2022, 06:55 AM

I just happy you realize it not Pike's Place.

iamwingman · 10-18-2022, 06:59 AM

Stove top stuffing. No other will do.

M_Six · 10-18-2022, 07:42 AM

Cafe du Monde coffee
Half and half (can't stand other coffee creamers)
Cains Tartar Sauce

freakystyly · 10-18-2022, 07:44 AM

Nutella

Dpc2u · 10-18-2022, 07:46 AM

Kerrygold pure Irish butter.

Our03z4 · 10-18-2022, 08:11 AM

Well I know if I find shoes I really like I usually buy at least 4 pairs at one time. Skechers from Costco were my last choice, unbelievably comfy and at a great price, bought 6 pairs.

People around here do that with St Pete and the locals get so made when someone calls it St Pete's

Same!

unluky · 10-18-2022, 08:57 AM

Guy's Legendary BBQ Chips. If it's not them - I don't want them.

I'm also particular to my toothpaste like you, but I think most people are.

Also shit paper and paper towels - I have exact brand/models I like - and I will pass buying if they are out. LOL

Oldgixxer · 10-18-2022, 09:00 AM

*Heinz Ketchup
Hallmark greeting cards
*Astroglide lube
Deer Park or Poland Spring water
Martins potato bread
Barilla pasta
Michelin tires
Bounty paper towels
Charmin toilet paper

I'm certain there's more but that's just off the top of my head

*-Indicates ZERO chance of compromise. Thats that

JAI///M3 · 10-18-2022, 11:27 AM

Wait Costco is bundling shoes into 6 pair boxes now. Damn. And I thought the pack of TP was big….

Lol no I just buy 6 pairs. Usually I get a pair at the store, then wear them for a week or so. If I like them I order more from them online. Last ones were only $34, I'm bummed because I love them so much but I'm down to two pair left.

I do that too. I bought 6 pairs of Skechers Arch Fit slip-ons because I like them so much. I bought so many because I thought they might be discontinued.

For my walks at night I bought 6 pairs of Brooks Addiction 14. Brooks changes their shoes so quickly and I don't always like the next version.

Makes me feel like a hoarder. lol

Nah, hot sauce will depend what kind of food i'm eating. I'd rather have Huy Fong sriracha over other branded sriracha.
