But sometimes the nicer packaged product is better, it depends on the product.

And often times it isn’t. In fact, name-brand can ofter be worse for a multitude of reasons.

I’m interested in examples of when name-brand is worse quality, but yes, name-brand isn’t always objectively better, and is often produced in the same facility.
As usual, it depends, so don’t knee-jerk to all one or the other, if it matters to you, compare the packaging (it’ll say where it was produced, so you can guess when it’s the same product).
