AC Delco Oil Filters at. . . Wal-Mart?

Yeah, that's no typo. . . And I ain't making it up, but here in Cali where I live, the Wally World here has in stock Mobil 1, Mopar, Motorcraft, and just recently AC Delco. . .along with their usual stuff. Not a whole lot mind you, but they did have PF52's -the most of any Delco type.

However. . . I opened up a box and noticed the Delco filters looked different on the inside. The rubber behind the holes wasn't the same as the ones I already have. It was a pink orange-ish color instead of black. Have they changed something or what? Wondered if anybody else noticed this.

Nope, It's AC Delco. . . in the current logo and box. The filter is blue, and has the label on it. . . I'm going back tomorrow and pick one up. . . since its under $4. I'll check and see if it says "PRODUCT OF THE USA" on the top.
