Are you saying one plant was less quality conscious than the other? That's
entirely possible. Or are you saying 'lower' label brands from the same
plant have 'more crap'? If you mean the later, it's just not true. Once a
line is set up, it isn't changed for different brands. The only difference
is the label. The line producing Kraft is going to be no different when they
put a "Krapt" label on it.
