The deli hot bar at Walmart is trending on TikTok, with many users claiming that it rivals popular fast food establishments. 

Until recently, Walmart’s deli hot bar wasn’t considered anything spectacular. In fact, when compared to Costco’s illustrious food court, some might say it was at the bottom of their list. But, things are changing, and with fast food prices escalating a stunning 13%, people are now flooding Walmart’s hot bar. 

One TikTok user, @samantha420gonzalez, urged people to “Stop giving these fast food places your money”, showcasing a container packed to the brim with chicken wings, potato wedges, and mac and cheese. 

At Walmart, an 8-piece wing combo will only cost you $5.97, whereas in KFC, the establishment charges a whopping $9. Similarly, an 8-piece wing combo at Wingstop will cost anywhere between $12.89, and $15.99. 

Is Walmart’s Deli Hot Bar really that good? 

Those who are considering stopping off at Walmart for their next meal might wonder if it’s really all that good. This is a contentious topic that has many TikTok users divided. Popular fast food TikToker Wayne Dang had nothing but praise for the establishment, claiming that their mashed potato was “ever so flavorful”, and the mac and cheese was “cheddar-licious”

Some in the comments section though, had different opinions. One claimed “the mac and cheese looks like play-dough”, while another said the food was “never hot” at their local Walmart. 

But, with the opportunity to save over $5, it’s certainly a winner for most people.
