    With food the more complexity the more chances they have to screw up in my experience. Milk, butter, cheese and bread? Prob won’t be an issue. Soda, Mac n cheese, hamburger helper? Lot more questionable… though I’ll admit that cola derivatives are really hard to fuck up to the point where it’s a hard pass.

      Yeah, I’m probably forgetting some of the products. Like ketchup which some people mentioned… I don’t drink soda that often. But you’re right with beverages in general. I’m picky with beer and that’s always one of two or three (local) brands. And I’m not sure about the convenience products. Could be a cultural difference or me refusing to buy overpriced powdered seasonings… I buy spices and pasta and do it myself, at least most of the times. I mean I’ve never tasted hamburger helper, I can’t comment on that.
