"seemingly identical item" -
Can you give a more specific example of this? Like if it's two different brands of "chicken noodle soup", then I'd assume the ingredient list could/would change.
But are you saying that a can of Campbell's chicken noodle soup in the dollar store is different from the Campbell's can at Walmart? e.g. the same brand ingredients change?
- IncRnd 5y agoI meant the second. I can't say that happens in all cases, but I've specifically checked this for some food items at Dollar Tree, and the ingredient lists differed in those cases. It was about two years ago when I checked. I noticed an item in the refrigerated section at Dollar Tree, where the item was $1, yet I had just purchased the same item at the grocery for more money. I purchased the item at Dollar Tree and compared the ingredients. Then I checked one other item, as it occurred to me. It was idle curiousity more than anything else. I know there much be some difference between the item at a dollar store and the item at a non-dollar store, either expiration, item size, item ingredients, or something else.
- taftster 5y agoInteresting, thanks.
