Not too many, but my mayo has to be Hellman's, and my ketchup has to be Heinz,

Not so where I live. Giant Eagle's house brand potato chips are better than anything from Frito-Lay, which is what's available at CVS. They're very similar to Wise potato chips, so since both are from PA, I suspect that may be where the Giant Eagle chips are made.

I don't eat corn chips much, so I haven't compared house v. national brands. I did like Late July's habanero bacon flavor last summer, though.

I find this more with potato chips than tortilla. I've never had store brand tortilla chips that wouldn't pas a side by side taste test with Tostitos.

Per Wikipedia:

"Hellmann's and Best Foods are brand names that are used for the same line of mayonnaise and other food products. The Hellmann's brand is sold in the United States east of the Rocky Mountains, and also in Latin America, Europe, Middle East and Canada. The Best Foods brand is sold in the United States west of the Rocky Mountains, and also in Asia, Australia, and New Zealand."

Also in that article: the two products have NEARLY identical, but not identical, recipes.

The only two that I can think of are Best Foods Mayo - Hellman's when I'm east of the Rocky Mountains and Hungry-Man TV Dinners(aka premade entrees when I'm entertaining)
