I'd say we really need an phone application and or web browser extension to find out if a product is owned by Private Equity or Big Business. Something like isitbigbeer.com but for clothing, toys, food, and drink.

Companies like Kroger are buying up their competition while not changing the name to make it look like they still compete.

The Buyr app is made for this, though not sure it covers clothing and toys yet.
