Yeah, from what I've heard at work (Honda), the Interstate battery guy who delivers batteries to the parts department just slaps the appropriate Honda sticker on them. Then goes to Toyota and Nissan next door and does the same, as far as I know. What a bunch of BS.
EDIT:
Just looked it up, guess who manufactures batteries for Interstate? JOHNSON CONTROLS, ha! You learn something new every day.
