"Generic" packaging ca. 1980 - your memories and thoughts about it

They had generic goods at Giant Eagle. A buddy of mine worked there and tipped us off on which ones were good. I remember the potato chips were, but the bag was big, so you had to make sure you kept them fresh.

My buddy said they regularly got questions from customers about where to find the “genetic” and “geriatric” products (this was in West Virginia).
