Some friends of mine call it that or "Second Hand Foods."
Sometimes items on or past pull date are heavily discounted. Yogurt and puddings at ridiculously low prices are fine if you can use them...
To add on to what Alex posted it is better for a cannery to keep running products to sell at a lower price than to shut down a line and layoff workers even for a short period of time.

To me 500 grit seems coarse for a knife.

All the above is likely correct in its own way.
There used to be more canneries than there are today.
Some national brands have their own canneries and only produce their own products.

Good advice Mike. We work with tools that can be very dangerous.
We should never work with our tools when we are not able to give our full attention to working safely.

I just realized there hasn't been a single phone call today from a marketer or anyone.

Since taking a little time to fine tune the fit on my socket chisels there hasn't been a problem with any of them:
Not with the Buck Bros or the various makers of my short...
One of mine would spin so often that a hole was drilled through it and the stock to insert a piece of brass rod to hold it in place. Gave the nut a slight twist to kink the rod. It works great now.

Sometimes the bolt on the Stanley bevel gauge would turn so the lever would end up hanging over the edge. This would sometimes get in the way. This looks like the nut stays inside the outer...
They may not be the ones to take care of it but they may have knowledge of how to rectify the situation. They might be worth contacting.

Here is one thing to check when installing a handle on a socket chisel, lightly insert the tenon in to the socket. Then wiggle it back & forth every which way. There should be no looseness. If there...
Often it is from the same cannery. Sometimes there are multiple canneries and some items may be significantly cheaper from a second tier cannery.
Speaking of Generic these were maybe just a joke:...
That will teach me to trust Google results. Tennessee does have an income tax on corporations. You can bet your bottom dollar that gets passed through to consumers. Though last time I was in...
I was very happy to find the prices of hardware so reasonable at the Tractor Supply and the Wilco stores that opened a few years ago.

My read on this is the rust is stains on the glass jars.
Most large grocery stores carry cleaning strength vinegar in the cleaning supply aisle. An overnight soak in some of this should do the...
Another thing is my handling of socket chisels is to be aware the handle may slip off. This avoids the unexpected.
As has been said before, "trust but verify."
