A lot of companies that sell private brands like Walmart and Save a Lot - and probably Meijers - contract with the same company to supply the canned products. They just slap different labels on them. And some of those companies also supply canned products to big names like Libby, DelMonte tc. -- at least this used to be the case many years ago. I dated a young man whose family supplied beauty products to a lot of diferent companies. Be sure to look at the contents of the can before setting it out.
