Let me start by saying this is not branded content—we just honestly like Great Value products. Say what you will about Walmart, but judging by taste and cost alone, their Great Value foods are just plain good.
Many of Walmart’s Great Value foods have appeared on our rankings. If I listed all the Great Value foods we’ve ever included, this would be an impossibly long list. And I respect your time too much—you have things to do, like go grocery shopping at Walmart. (Again, not branded content.) So, this is a list of all the best Great Value products at Walmart that really rose above the rest. The Walmart Great Value products we go to Walmart specifically to buy.
Without further ado (because, I know, you are very, very busy) here are the best Great Value products to buy at Walmart.

- Great Value Root Beer
-
Walmart’s Great Value root beer isn’t just one of the best Great Value products to buy—it’s also one of the best root beers we’ve ever had. It has a balanced flavor—not too herbal, not too sweet—and it goes down easy. Seriously, consider dropping your brand name root beer in favor of this generic beauty of a soda.

- Great Value 100% Arabica Colombian Ground Coffee
-
Is this the absolute best coffee pod you can buy? No. But is it the best coffee pod you can buy at Walmart? Definitely. It’s very, very drinkable—and cheap as heck. It’s not super strong, but it still has a pleasant roasted flavor, along with fruity notes. It tastes like a much more expensive cup of coffee.

- Great Value Sausage & Gravy Breakfast Bowl
-
This Walmart brand frozen breakfast bowl is better than most of the brand name stuff. You get tender potatoes, scrambled eggs, savory sausage, cheese, and, the best part, peppery white gravy. You probably shouldn’t have it every day, but it certainly belongs on your Walmart shopping list every now and then. It’s also super cheap, as all good Great Value food is.

- Great Value Classic Mini Corn Dogs
-
If you haven’t figured it out yet, some of the best Great Value products can be found in the freezer section. Case in point: these mini chicken corn dogs. The little wieners are tasty, but the main attraction is the corn coating, which gets crispy and genuinely tastes like corn.

- Great Value Fudge Mint Cookies
-
Sorry, neighbor girl, we found a Thin Mints dupe that may actually be even better than the real thing. They’re slightly thicker, crunchier, and mintier than classic Girl Scout Thin Mints, but its just as easy to swallow a whole sleeve of these suckers. In the world of Great Value food, this is S-tier stuff.

- Great Value Chicken Finger Dipping Sauce
-
This Great Value dip is a perfect dupe for Raising Cane’s Cane’s Sauce. A mix of mayo, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper (or, at least, natural flavors that approximate those ingredients), it is, of course, a perfect dip for chicken fingers. But it’s also great with french fries, onion rings, fried okra, fried shrimp—anything fried. If you dip, this is one of the best Great Value products to buy.

- Great Value Spicy Brown Mustard
-
At just over a dollar, this versatile condiment (which took the top spot in our spicy brown mustard taste test) is a must-purchase Great Value food. “It is so perfectly spicy while maintaining a great classic mustard flavor,” wrote Sporked’s Jordan Myrick in their review. It’s great on a sandwich, great on a hot dog, great on your fingers.

- Great Value Butter Flavor Jumbo Biscuits
-
Great Value isn’t afraid of a little indulgence. So, trust the label when it says “butter flavor.” These big biscuits are buttery without being greasy and they are so good they need no spreads or toppings. In fact, they were the only biscuits on our best biscuits list that we would eat plain—no butter needed.

- Great Value Savory Steak Sauce
-
This mouth-watering steak sauce came out ahead of every other steak sauce we tasted. “The flavors here are in line with most store-bought steak sauce, with notes like tomato puree, vinegar, spices, raisin puree, and orange puree, but it’s just so damn savory it took our number one spot,” Sporked contributor Danny Palumbo wrote in his review. Don’t stop with steak. Use this umami-filled sauce as a dip for fries or chicken nuggets, or pour it onto baked potatoes.

- Great Value Orange Juice with Pulp
-
Here’s another steal. You can get nearly half of a gallon of high-quality orange juice for just over three dollars. Not to be confused with their original OJ, which did not score high points in our orange juice taste test, Walmart’s pulpy Great Value OJ is just so good.

- Great Value Salsa Con Queso Cheese Dip
-
This cheesy dip is thick and creamy with chunks of pepper for an added kick. It’s classic party queso. “I would happily serve this at a party to guests I like and respect,” Jordan wrote in their review. “I would also pour this over a burrito and eat it with a knife and fork.” They even recommended mixing it with noodles for instant mac n’ cheese. It’s so much more than a dip and it’s so cheap!

- Great Value Bite Size Tortilla Chips
-
For under two dollars you can have one of the top three best tortilla chips we tasted. “They are perfectly salted bites of crunchy goodness,” Jordan wrote in their review, praising the brand for not being afraid to season their dang chips. We also liked the circular shape, which is easier to fit into jars of dip—like Great Value Salsa Con Queso!

- Great Value Dijon Mustard
-
We ranked this mustard second, just under the fancy Maille Dijon mustard. “While nothing can quite live up to Maille, Great Value comes surprisingly close,” Jordan wrote in their review. “It’s sharp and vinegary and smooth.” It’s also much, much cheaper than Maille.

- Great Value Lemon & Ginger Herbal Tea
-
Perfect hot or iced, this tea walks the balance between nasal-clearing ginger spice and mild twinge. “This is a tea that is gingery enough for a ginger lover and mild enough for people who can’t handle a ton of spice,” Jordan wrote in their review. Keep a box in the pantry for the next time your tummy is acting up or you feel a cold coming on.

- Great Value Seasoned Black Beans
-
Here’s another well-seasoned Great Value food. “These beans come seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic, and cumin, so they’re ready to eat,” Danny wrote in his review. All you need to do is warm them up in a microwave and you have your side dish sorted for the evening.
