They’ve had food for at least 3 decades why is that at all surprising? Hell, our Home Depot has a bbq night it would be honestly weirder if they didn’t sell food.

I wouldn’t know, I think I have been in walmart maybe 3 times in my life (they never have anything worth buying I noticed).
But I have followed their business plan pretty closely, and choosing the cheapest lowest quality everything makes me think food is the last possible thing I would buy from them. I am shocked they even carry food frankly.

You’ve been there 3 times and didn’t notice the food so I’m going to go ahead and say you don’t sound too observant.
The “pantry” side of the business is easily a third of their profits. How do you follow a business plan without knowing their revenue streams?

Because their business plan is reduce the price, create cheaper knock-offs and eliminate the original competition.
