And I absolutely will not ever buy soda that is a store brand. They can't achieve the same flavor profile as the brand names do, and I find their efforts to mimic it kind of gross.

While I generally agree with your assessment, I have to say there is nothing better than President's Choice White Cheddar Macaroni. It beats the rather anaemic Kraft Dinner, hands down.
In fact, I would suggest that the majority of President's Choice products, which are off-brand products produced for the grocery chain, Loblaw's in Canada, are exceptional. They have done more to introduce quality and excellent flavours than any other brand I can think off in Canada. All at a reasonable price point.
The one thing I will never substitute... Ketchup. It's Heinz or nothing.
