I buy a lot of Kroger's house brand products and they're pretty
darn good with the exception of their canned lima beans. Two
or three times I've tried them just thinking it was a bad crop.
I'd wait about a year before trying them again but every single
time those limas were as hard as a rock no matter how long I
simmered them.
