Once upon a time in England we had “No Frills” which was basically exactly that
remember when Tesco products were white packages with blue stripes?
When I was poor and unemployed in the distant past, I sustained myself on Tesco value pasta at 13p a bag.
I remember their orange juice being so thick and rich for something like 30p per litre. The richer parents bought the brands with pulp
I still stand by their Finest range of orange juice with pulp. Everyone else’s is shit.
Nah, I loved gulping that battery acid
Now they dress it up with fake farm and deli names. "Creamfields", "Hearty Food Co", "Boswell Farms". I am not fooled!
Canada still has No Frills, at least In British Columbia. They essentially get the leftovers the big-box stores don’t want.
No Frills in Ontario too
