You're right, but when it turns out that Ol'Roy and Eukanuba were both made at the same plant with the same poisoned wheat gluten. . .

I don't know much about truly high quality foods, and I suspect that the ratios are very different. But I was still kind of surprised by the variety in the price range affected. It's not that I thought that it would be impossible to taint expensive brands or anything, but I had imagined that each company had its own suppliers and production facilities.

It's kind of like when you realize that your expensive handbag with a designer name is probably produced in the same factor with similar materials as the Target handbag. You know all along on some level that you're merely paying for branding, but can be surprising never-the-less.
