Brands you (unreasonably) dislike?

[whatadaytoday]

I was thinking about this tonight as I parked next to a Renault SUV. It’s completely unreasonable but I’ve never liked the brand since someone I know once said ‘it’s like driving a bin on wheels’. Even though I’m sure the brand is perfectly fine (and very popular) it’s stuck in my head. Apologies to all Renault drivers!

I’ve got other brands I unreasonably dislike too but do you have any?

Every hairdresser always tells me how awful it is, and that it is terrible for hair.

I've never liked the idea of a kind of antifungal shampoo, so i try to use a natural version like tea tree oil or mint shampoo.

Haha same! That campaign really annoys me even now.

I thought it was just me!

That name really irritates me. I’m notorious for being too literal, but I’m always left thinking…that’s 3 people…there’s Jo Jo, and Maman and Bebe. Who’s Jojo and haven’t the Maman and Babe got names too? Is Jojo the Bebe? Or the daddy?

Me too. I use Aldi liquid at a very good price. Detergent is money for a old rope, just goes down the drain, literally!

Shein, Primark

I agree with Pandora and I’ll raise you Nominations bracelets and Thomas sodding Sabo. Awful stuff, all of it!

Heinz. They seem determined to ruin all of their products. Their collaboration with Richmond for their sausages is just a step too far.

Holland Cooper. Overpriced trying to be ‘country’ rubbish. I think it looks cheap.

White fox- too common.

North face- scally lads with hoods up

I only like the original Cadbury’s.

I tell my family never to buy me posh chocolate (I loathe it) but to get me some Milk Tray and the they ignore me every time. I end up disappointed and usually give the stuff away.😢

Were the Halara jeans any good?

Reform UK Ltd. But I do feel very reasonable in my dislike.

No, they are horrible! I was utterly peed off when they came out as I (used) to wear the one my mum collected me from childhood travels then gave to me in my late teens. I adored that, it was unusual and now people will think am trying to rip off pandora.

I clutch my pearls and sometimes shop in Waitrose. I don’t wear Boden or Joules but I’m very familiar with them.

Cailler is the amazing chocolate you buy in Switzerland, sadly the Swiss don't export it. Far superior to Lindt in my opinion.

Doritos

Their crisps are rank!

I also think cos of that Friends knockoff ad about 'women can have multiple orgasms'.

I occasionally get hotel chocolate - I throw it over the churchyard behind my house for the mice to eat. Cannot stand the stuff. It was once ok, about 20 years ago, then they changed.

Hotel Chocolate is my hatred.. overpriced, plasticy tasting chocolate.

You needed a white cane to navigate their shops.
They had it that dark you could barely see the clothes.

These. Feels too pushy and fake. So ive never brought.

Trinny London - used to be a fan. Now just annoyed at her stance and the ridiculous prices for basic make up.

Joules and Boden.

Joules. Do not think you will cross my threshold wearing anything by Joules. (Unless you're under 5yo and cute).

Liberty. I waited 50 years to visit that store. What a disappointment! Smelled of damp, had dirty toilets and sold the usual tat with ginormous price tags. Couldn’t get out fast enough.

Oh goodness, I’m glad it’s not just me but I always get the rage in our local Tesco superstore. My DH just doesn’t get it and we’ve actually ended up having a row about a supermarket. I don’t know whether it’s the lighting, the layout or the way things are displayed but I actually feel a cloud descending on me whenever I go in and I genuinely feel stressed and anxious. Even the flooring winds me up! No other food shop has this effect on me.

It’s all very odd, but I’m reassured that I’m not unique.

Try Jo loves, that's her new range post lauder acquiring the original brand.

Totally agree!
