I don't know if it's different where you are, but here in Finland the generics (in store brands) are actually quite often made by the same big local brands, but depending on your food label laws it can be impossible to determine. Here they need to tell the country and actual manufacturer in the packaging making it easy.

they tell that too in us, some of them like arrowhead, and you see store brand one, its made by the exact same company.
