Jewish food at Wal*Mart ?

Question

I have shopped at a dozen or so different supermarkets in my area and all of them have carried at least a small selection of "Jewish foods" even if it was only matzoh.

There are three Wal*Mart super centers in the area with large grocery sections and NONE of them have ANY "Jewish" foods. They have all kinds of other unusual ethnic foods that I would have never thought of seeing in our stodgy New Hampshire communities, but NO "Jewish" items.

Here is my questions

- Does your local Wal*Mart supercenter carry "Jewish" food items ( i.e. Matzoh, gefilte fish in jars,)

-Do other supermarkets in your area carry "Jewish" foods

-Where are you answering from (city and state please)

Answer 1

Answer 3

I don't know about WalMart, but all or the grocery chains here (Washington, DC area) have an aisle of ethnic foods which include Kosher or Jewish foods. You can complain to the manager or write a letter to the main office asking them to carry the foods you want.

Answer 4

first there must be a request for the grocer to want to order an item..

the clientele at walmat is not really religious

second today's Jewish are just as diverse at cooking as you and I. "Jewish " food just may not appeal

And most packaged foods are marked as Kosher

just look for the symbols

As a last resort phone  a synagogue

Answer 5

no

Answer 6

"Jewish" foods?  I'm not certain if the Wal-mart here carries KOSHER  foods, the Wegmans does for sure they even have ready made kosher meals.  Many stores may not carry kosher foods year round, but will set up a section around Passover.  I'm not Jewish but it's my favorite time of year because I can get kosher Coca-cola which is even better than the regular coke.  Harrisburg, PA

Answer 7

All the supermarkets in my area carry at least a small kosher section, the walmart has 2 small sections (one i believe is by the seasonal and has passover approved goodies...even jelly rings!  Walmart probably has the least,  a grocery store called "Giant Eagle" though (the big local chain) usually has a fairly large Kosher section probably close to a half an aisle (one side)  however we do have a decent jewish population here in Pittsburgh PA

Answer 8

newport beach, california...and no ...there are no walmarts in newport beach.....but the nearest one to me is either foothill ranch or aliso viejo....but i do not think they carry jewish foods there...

i know the bristol farms gracery store down the street from cedars sianai has tons of jewish foods...(big jewish area) in los angeles near beverly hills...

Answer 9

I live in upstate NY, The local jewish population is pretty big, but Wal Mart has 'nothing'  kosher. (except for those few items before passover) But the local Shop Rite has a BIG selection of kosher products all year round.
