What Brands do you associate with? 9/18/25

This is strictly from a man’s point of view!

I am very particular when it comes to lunchmeats and cheeses for example, Majesty Imported Ham and Clearfield Ceese are our go to’s

Cereals: Cheerios, Chex, Raisin Bran Crunch, Frosted Flakes, Pops to name a few

Ice Cream: Tillamook, Greens, Breyers, Häagen-Dazs, Klondike, and more

Potato Chips, Pretzels, Popcorn: Herr’s, Utz, Lays/Bachman, Snyder and Smart Corn, Cheetos, Cheese Puffs

Candy: Butterfinger, 5th Avenue, Clark Bar, Heath, Hershey, Lindt, Snickers, Cadbury, Ashers, Wilburs, and let’s face it, a host of others, as if it’s chocolate or candy, someone is eating it

Peanut Butter: Jif, Peter Pan, and Skippy Jam/Jelly: Bonne Maman Strawberry Preserves, Welch’s/Smucker’s Grape or Strawberry Jam

Coffee: Dunkin Donuts Ground Decaf and Regular, Greens, New England, or Illie

Teas: Lipton Regular or Decaf /Stash, Bigelow, or Twinings Earl Grey

New Balance Sneakers (608’s) are the old man’s shoes because of the comfort and wide toe-box. Also, Sketchers slip-ons or Loafer dress gel insole shoes

Clothes, Shirts, and Hoodies, Under Armor, or pretty much anything that doesn’t have a logo on the shirt or pocket. I know it’s me.

Jeans: Levi’s or Wranglers, that’s it. Dress Casual: Dockers’s/Hanes/Cool comfort

Underwear: Fruit of the Loom/Hanes/ Tank Top tees (white only) and boxer briefs that are comfortable and breathable

Dress Shirts: Oxford Style Collar made strictly of cotton and of quality.

Cologne: Old Spice (still), Clubman Pinard, VO5 and hair styling gel if you can find it …LA is the way!

Cars: Must have A/C, all the latest safety features, Bluetooth speakers, power and heated seats, an auto car starter for winter and summer heating and cooling, a comfortable, quiet ride, looks friendly and appealing, and has a minimum 5-year bumper-to-bumper pkg. With 0% financing over 72 months and all-weather radial tires, this vehicle offers intuitive all-wheel drive with an economy drive feature (hybrid), ensuring a safe and cost-effective ride for my loved ones and me for many years, with good mileage.

Point to Ponder: Many of these things are like ice cream flavors, and we all know which ones we like best. Now I feel this is a relatively short list as any woman reading this would have a list that is several pages long, filling multiple closets of clothes, handbags, shoes, make-up, grooming, and so much more.
