Some items I personally recommend. Great Value apple juice, Great Value milk, Great Value chocolate milk, Great Value cheese balls, Great Value cookies, Great Value meatballs, Great Value chicken nuggets, Great Value burritos, Great Value hamburgers of various types, Great Value ice cream and ice cream products, Great Value salsa in the square jars (usually black bean and corn, and a few others), and the Great Value small squeeze bottles of condiments, such as various mustards, cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, sweet and sour sauce, etc. The Great Value Doritos-style chips are alright, but just a tiny bit thicker then Doritos... they taste fine, but more a thing of an almost imperceptible difference in texture. The Great Value potato chips are also good, but, again, the textures might be different from whatever name brands you might be used to.
