I’m a knitter and I LIKE Red Heart and other acrylic yarns. They’re cheap and wear like iron, and are perfectly OK for kids’ blankets, which is what I use it to make.
Frozen vegetables aren’t that inferior to fresh. They’re generally frozen quickly after picking. Canned are what I grew up with and I’ll pass, thank you. But frozen are usually very good.
I absolutely agree with this. I buy matching towels, hand towels and face washers but the ‘good’ face washers are too thick and luxuriant to really do the job properly. Especially, as you said, washing the ole auricles.
And hardly any more complicated to cook than heating up canned vegs, as OP does. Just pour into microwave-safe bowl, add a tablespoon of water, and nuke for 3 minutes instead of 1 minute, and it’s done. (Nuke for 6 minutes if you like your vegs cooked to mush.)
I do it with butter not water.
In paint, sometimes crappy WalMart brand will do. No reason to get the $40 a gallon kind.
You trap stray cats and eat them?
And, oh, when they had their peach soda, it was so darn good!
I’m still a fan of Chef Boy-Ar-Dee ravioli. Yeah, it’s “average.” But, doggone it, I like the stuff, and I like it better than more expensive frozen “gourmet” ravioli.
Agree 100%, and I also like thinner towels, the fluffy expensive ones are like trying to dry off with a blanket.
I prefer Windows to Mac…
I prefer my OJ from a carton, I really don’t like the freshly squeezed kind at all.

For me the big one is Pizza. Here in Germany, we have a ton of really nice Italian pizzerias, which my SO insists is way better than the crap from the corner store in my hometown in the US, but damn if I don’t just love the greasy, lousy crap you get there. 
One of my favourite guitars is an Epiphone G-400, which I prefer to any actual Gibson SG I’ve tried (and I’ve tried quite a few).
^ Oh, yeah!
I have items made of that stuff that have stood up to 20+ years of wear. Machine wash and dry. Love it for stuff that gets hard wear.
Sure, I indulge in hoity-toity yarns sometimes (my merino super-wash wool socks I use on really cold days) but for basic hats, scarves, and blankets? Red Heart and cousins all the way.
I could make a bacon sandwich from the best cut of organic free-range rare-breed bacon on lovingly hand-crafted Bavarian artisanal sourdough. But it wouldn’t taste as good to me as several rashers of Valu-Brand abused pig between two slices of cheapo white rubber bread.
I prefer cheap TP to that Charmin stuff.
If you prefer canned veggies over fresh, or frozen, make sure it isn’t because canned veggies have lots of sugar added to them. It’s not just the salt or other additives; canned corn and canned peas are almost candy.
My gf recently sent me to the paint store with a list of what she needed. The $40 a gallon stuff would have been great, but they only had “good stuff”. I was shocked.
To me, cheap pasta sauce (Ragu) is much better than the expensive stuff (Rao’s). I also like cheap caramel candy , rather than the $20.00/lb. sea slated crap. Also, prefer my Chevy Malibu to my brother’s M-B 500S (that thing rides like a truck).
If letting things spoil meets the parameters of this thread, I like my milk sour. I’m very fastidious about keeping exposure to pathogens (mouth, fingers) away from my milk, and I like it best when it starts to get lumpy. If protected from contamination, milk just turns nicely sour, and doesn’t “go bad”. In fact, all dairy and bakery products keep just fine for a very long time (that is, do not “go bad”) if you are careful not to touch them.
I also found that potatoes are sweeter and better tasting after sitting in my fridge for a month or two, which I discovered by accident when I came back from a 6-week vacation and ate the shriveled up potatoes still in my fridge. When the skins begin to look like prunes, both the skin and the flesh of the potato improve in flavor.
