great value frosted pop tarts over the real thing

I always liked the Winn Dixie "Cracklin Good" pop tarts over the Kelloggs ones. Strawberry FTW

So many Walmart answers. This thread should be a honey pot to weed out the poors.

HEB has little abuelas pumping out fresh tortillas daily, so those are my answer.

I been telling the OT about the Cantina Style Great Value salsa for years.

Yes! I was kinda surprised at how good it was. It's my favorite salsa now.

Publix dairy products. Milk, butter, yogurt, etc are top notch. Fun fact, high ranking Publix exec told me that they sell their excess cream from butter making to McDonalds for their half n half cups.
