Food

You want to feed your family healthy food, but making the best choices can be difficult, especially if you're on a budget or short on time or if you or any members of your family have special dietary needs. Fortunately, Walmart makes it easy to plan meals and stock up on delicious and nutritious food that is also affordable.

Barbecue essentials

Anytime is a great time to fire up the barbecue. Grab some hot dogs, hamburgers, steaks, chops, corn on the cob, and whatever else you like to grill and get ready for a fun food fest. Of course, barbecue essentials don't necessarily need to be cooked on a grill. Don't forget the:

• Chips and snacks, like pistachios, and mixed nuts, almonds and snack crackers
• Dips and spreads, including salsa, guacamole, and black bean dip
• Side dishes of rice, mac and cheese, and pasta salad
• beans and chili
• Condiments, like ketchup, mustard, mayo, and more

You'll also find Walmart's lowest prices on picnic items like paper plates, napkins, plastic cups, plasticware, and more, should you want to take your meal to the great outdoors.

Beverages

From water and juice to coffee, beer and wine, you'll find a wide variety of delicious and refreshing beverages at Walmart, all at everyday low prices.

Explore the varied selection of juices, where you'll find common favorites like apple, orange, and cranberry juice as well as mixed fruit and vegetable juices and much more. Browse the soft drinks: colas, root beer, cream soda, fruit sodas, and more in both standard and sugar-free varieties, including options from popular brands such as Coca Cola, Pepsi, and A&W. If you've been exercising, try sports drinks, like Gatorade, to keep yourself hydrated and maybe a caffeinated energy drink to keep yourself going throughout the day.

There is also a large selection of hot beverages, including coffee, tea, and hot cocoa, plus adult beverages, including beer, wine, and spirits.

To turn an ordinary glass of water into a more appealing beverage, consider powdered drink mixes and drink enhancers, which come in a wide range of flavors and include diet and fortified options featuring vitamins and electrolytes.

Organic foods

If you prefer to feed your family with natural or organic foods, enjoy Walmart's inventory of organic delights, which are made without artificial ingredients; they're grown without synthetic pesticides or chemical fertilizers.

A food is labeled as organic by the way farmers grow and process their agricultural products, like different meats, fruits, vegetables, grains, and dairy products. Organic farming practices are created to promote soil and water conservation and also to reduce pollution.

The farmers who grow organic produce don't use what would be considered conventional methods to fertilize and control weeds. For example, organic farming practices would include the use of natural fertilizers to feed the soil and plants, while using crop rotation or mulch to manage the weeds.

So what makes a product organic for certain? The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) established a certification program that requires all organic-labeled foods to meet strict government standards first. These standards regulate how such foods are grown, handled and processed. Thus, any product labeled as organic must be USDA certified.

You could look through a variety of foods and check for the organic label on each one, but it s a much easier shopping process when everything can be found together, in one convenient location.

Whatever your dietary goals or requirements are, you can easily find foods that meet your needs at Walmart. Just filter your search by dietary need and you'll find a large selection of delicious foods. Save Money. Live Better.
