Believe it or not WalMart has almost brutal standards for Produce and meat. I’m picky on Produce but they have some good stuff reasonably priced.

I work in a major grocery retailer AND I do ALL of my grocery shopping at Walmart!!! I shop VERY EARLY in the morning to avoid the normal Walmart shoppers but the quality of meats AND produce are better than where I work!!! I used to shop at the military commissary with my mom HOWEVER Walmart has the same if not BETTER pricing than the commissary!!!!

when my oldest was working through college, he was assistant manager at Walmart. He said the same thing, their standards on meat and produce were second only to SAM’s club.

In addition, his friend worked at SAM’s (right next door), and he said at 6am (before SAM’s opens to the public) all the restaurants load up at SAM’s. Sam’s has the best meats around Chicagoland. Even what you as a SAM’s member get (which has been picked over by the restaurants early in the morning) is way better than our Jewel foods or any butcher in the area.

We use a Hungarian / Polish butcher for things like sausages and smoked/specialty meats though.

At least that is how it is around here, not sure about other states.
