I thought this might be a useful thread as so many well-known brands can be twice the price of supermarket own brands
here are two of my favourites;
Lidl 'Alesto' salted and dry roast peanuts are much nicer than KP ones
Lidl 'Rivercote' sesame crispbread are much nicer than Ryvita

What own brands do you favour?

I totally agree about Lidl crispbread. It used to be the case that there were many own-brand crispbreads to try, but unfortunately, since Covid, Ryvita has taken a monopoly of the market, and I just find their crispbread too hard to bite into. I'm scared of losing the fillings from my teeth! Please, supermarkets, bring back some competition. I used to get Ryvita, but they changed their recipe - and became much more expensive - so I haven't now for years. Even Lidl now only has the sesame version.

One brand which I prefer to own-brands is Lea and Perrins Worcester Sauce.

Also I prefer Hellman's Mayonnaise to any other brand.

I like the Ryvita crackerbread with isn't as hard. 
Bought the Lidl one but not tried yet 

This thread encouraged me to look at the product last time I was in Lidl - by my assessment it is no different to the standard cardboard offering, so it stayed on the shelf. 

Just tried the Lidl one its slightly harder than the Ryvita crackerbread..will stick with Ryvita when on offer
