Foxy Tip #5: Shitty Labels = Quality Products

Whenever I go grocery shopping, I always look for the shittiest labels* I can find. And no, I don't mean shitty as in cheap and poorly designed, I mean shitty as in looks like they made the labels on their own printer without any glossy paper before slapping them on the jars themselves. Consistently these have always been much tastier than any "big name" brands. I'd say breads, jams, peanut butter, fudge, maple syrup, honey, and those sorts of homemade kinds of foods are the ones that this works best with. And of course it goes without saying that these smaller companies are usually more local, so it's a nice thing to support.

*My boyfriend and I love that company's jams. They taste like real fruit.
