Unless, of course, you are introducing food b to better food a. In which case, forget about food a completely but find food c and d that are of equal quality as food b. You might not need to have the same sort of lengthy introduction to other equal quality foods once the quality you want to feed has been established.
Gosh, reading this back I myself am not sure whether what I am saying makes any sense lol

Exactly what I was going to suggest - instead of only feeding one brand of food for a while then going over to the next, I mix and match between 4 different brands! I did find however that once they were on a good quality food, they were fine with the other brands
