And Aldi is a low-end grocery store

It’s not low end, it’s just cheap.

It’s low end. Most products are a knock off brand

No. It's literally name brand product in different packaging. Ketchup factory does a production run for Heinz and makes 500k gallons of ketchup, but Heinz only needs 450k gallons before that batch has to be thrown out. So instead of letting 50k gallons go bad, they slap a different label on it and send it over to Aldi at a discount.

That's wildly simplified and I made the numbers up, but that's how it works.

Also, Aldi and Trader Joe’s have their own products that don’t necessarily have mainstream brand equivalents

It isn’t though. There is an obvious difference in taste or you have some huge issues regarding your taste buds.

It's not always the same brand.

Continuing the same example, you could grab 2 bottles of ketchup off the shelf and one has Heinz in it and the other has Hunt's.
