I only ever buy (premium) branded goods if I can taste a difference. So all dry pasta, Parmesen cheese, Chedder cheese (I usually go for the strong stuff), Pesto sauce and finest range sausages that actually have over 90% pork in it. Otherwise I can't be bothered.
One that I heard from a "mate" which has resulted in me only ever buying organic food from a farm :

Mr X said:Don't ever buy bagged supermarket organic labelled vegetables. They're washed at the same place as non organic. They're put into individual drums so that they can be rinsed. However if they've over filled one of them it's quicker just to place the excess into the nearest drum with spare capacity. This is done without taking care to find out first if the emptier drum contains organic or non organic goods already. Therefore there's not a single seperate process from field to bag as there's mixing going on - so never pay for organic marked bags as you might not be getting what you're paying a premium for!
