Real Food at Walmart? What to Buy!

The other day I went through the grocery section of our Super Walmart for the first time in a long time, and let me tell you what – I could not believe what I saw! I tried shopping for real food at Walmart during our 100-day budget pledge back in 2010 and it honestly felt like a big waste of time. I found a grand total of three organic items, which did not make traversing through the football field size store (with two little kids in tow) feel worth it.

So, I was shocked to see all the changes they’ve made in recent years and thought it would be fun to share what real food you can buy there now (read: this post is not sponsored). Be sure to head on over there so you can stock up and don’t forget to tell your friends about it too (i.e. share this post) – we need to show Walmart these items are in demand!

A whole section of organic produce! I hate to say it, but they put Target to shame with this display.

Not only is it organic, but it’s 100% grass fed – not always easy to find!

So many peanut butters contain unnecessary and unwanted additives, but not this one – simply peanuts with less than 1% of salt (no oil, sugar, etc.)

Organic dairy including butter, plain yogurt and store brand milk. I checked out Aldi recently and while they had store brand organic milk they didn’t have a whole milk option, which is what I would have chosen! So it was nice to see that available here.

For some reason I can’t find just plain organic frozen raspberries (only a mix) where I normally shop so I was overly excited about this one and stocked up. It’s the little things!

I'm thrilled to be guest posting for Lisa as nothing makes me happier than real food! I started Weelicious six years ago after the birth of my son when I couldn't find interesting homemade baby food recipes online and information on how you actually get kids to become great eaters from day one. But as the baby food stage quickly disappeared I found myself in the abyss of wondering how to feed my toddler. Like many moms I was scared of him choking, needing an epi-pen if he tasted peanut butter, or not getting enough nutrition when feeding himself.

Startling Artificial Sweetener Facts from 100 Days of #RealFood
When a packaged food is touted as "Sugar Free," that oftentimes means real sugar has been left behind and replaced with an artificial sweetener. This is yet another reason why it is so important to always read ingredient labels. Did you know that artificial sweeteners were literally invented in a lab by food scientists and that some of those sweeteners only entered our food system as recent as a few decades ago? That is practically brand new in a world where people have been eating for tens of thousands of years and - in my book - almost the opposite of the real, traditional foods I strive to feed my family. The Sugar Association says these artificial replacements are "chemically manufactured molecules – molecules that do not exist in nature." And as a result, even though we do our best to avoid white (refined) sugar, I'd personally rather eat that (i.e. the real thing) over artificial sweeteners any day. To see what added sweeteners we've decided are real food approved, check out our "No Refined Sweeteners" mini-pledge for the details. Some "Sugar Free" examples: (Clearly I see loads of other problems with these ingredient labels, but I am just sticking to the topic at hand today.)
