    Walmart is getting better with their vegan options. I just don’t go there as often. I should though. The prices are so much better, and I’m hella cheap. Their Daring chicken is $5 and change. Other places, they could go up to $8.

    Your videos are very informative and I appreciate that you let us see the ingredients on each of these items you're talking about. For some reason so many of the items you showed I don't find in Walmart where I live but I will try to look a lot closer maybe I just missed them.

    A tip that I found with the Gardein soups... add about a half can of water and its perfect; otherwise too salty... which is actually why I don't eat them anymore (they are super high in sodium)

    I think the Kikkoman Miso soup label showed it had mackerel powder in it so it is NOT vegan. I just wish they would make things easy and just put the V on things when they are. So much easier!!! Thanks for the video, enjoyed looking at all the various products.

      Plant based- (of food or a diet) consisting largely or solely of vegetables, grains, pulses, or other foods derived from plants rather than animal products.
      Unfortunately, Plant based means vegetarian. Never trust the plant base label. Read the ingredients. Hell, I don't even trust things that are labeled vegan. I always read the ingredients. Lol

    Thanks for choosing Walmart... I would like to eat less lean meats for more plant base but the fat from oil is pretty high if you eat 3 prepared meals per day. Just that flat bread has over 40g of fat if you have half for lunch and other half for dinner. Can you get heart problems with so much oils?

I used the “My items” feature to make a list of products I will try, based on this video. There were a few items that my local store does not carry. I am especially looking forward to the Cybele’s cookies and the tomato basil soup. Thanks again!

    Omnifoods is from Hong Kong (where I'm from), and it's really good! They are constantly improving their products too. The latest version of the "luncheon meat" (aka spam) is meaty, savoury and way less greasy than you'd expect. They also have a canned Omnituna, which is hands down the best plant-based tuna I've tried.

The tofurky has been great to easily find a way to change my lunch out at work and i believe i got the follow your heart cheese you shiwed jn this which both taste amazing actually. But starting with small thibgs like this at walmart has been great. Still sketchy to know in america with our relaxed health and food standards to know who is putting terrible thibgs in our food thats even kabeled heakthy but its a start

    It's easy for a lot of vegans to act very privileged when it comes to their food. It's one of the things that turns me off about the community. Not everyone has a Whole Foods or Trader Joe's, but Walmart is almost everywhere. It's nice to see all of these vegan options. Though I'm no longer vegan, I still eat veg*n maybe twice a week and keep a stash of Gardein in the freezer. Being lactose intolerant, I use all the plant-based milks. I think Gardein is the best, readily available, brand and makes a great convenience food. Vegan or not, I'm still a sub, as far back as the 'amazing cake,' 12 yrs ago.
