How do store brands get so close to name brand?

1.48K views

Do they have food scientists just guessing and checking with taste testers? Or do they know the exact recipe somehow and just tweak it to avoid lawsuits? Or do big box stores require name brands to hand over their recipes as part of a contract to shelf their brand along with their own store brand? Do the name brands try to keep it a secret but they keep getting bested? I have no idea how this works.

A lot of times the store brand is the name brand. They are made in the same place at the same time but labeled differently.
