Organic Olive Oil & Walmart's Decreased Prices

By Robert Sutter


When you think about the healthiest supermarkets in the world, chances are that names like Whole Foods Market and Trader Joe's are the first ones that come to mind. However, what if I were to tell you that Walmart stands a chance of falling in line as well? While it might seem a little hard to believe, to say the least, it seems like the well-known retailer is dropping prices in regards to organic foods. As you can imagine, organic olive oil will fall in line.

"Walmart isn't exactly known for its approach to organic food, though." I am sure that many would be able to make this criticism but it's been reported that Walmart, alongside Wild Oats, will be able to reduce prices on about 100 of its organic products. What does this mean, you may wonder? Basically, organic foods that we have come to expect - fruits and vegetables included - will now be able to be purchased at cheaper prices, which is a positive that I think all health gurus would be able to attest to.

It is prudent to note, though, that the quality of the items sold by Walmart will remain the same. What this means is that if you are someone who likes to use organic olive oil, for example, in order to cook meals, the quality of the oil in question will not be in question. This is especially important when given the fact that there are many benefits associated with this particular product, authorities such as Unaprol able to agree. With more affordable prices, though, this point will be all the clearer.

Organic olive oil is not the only item that will be seen, though, as there will be many other products that Walmart will drop the prices of. Forbes mentioned in an article that, according to Walmart's research, an estimated 91% of its audience would buy more organic food from the store if the price was right. Hopefully the 25 percent reduction, in terms of prices, will make matters all the more affordable. For those who pride themselves on being health gurus, this news cannot go unnoticed.

Organic food is growing in popularity and there does not seem to be any sign of it dropping off anytime soon. People are inclined to purchase these types of items but what about those individuals who might be on the fence, given the fact that these prices can wind up becoming a bit too much? As it stands, Walmart apparently has a number of people covered in the realm of organic food. Before long, I am sure that more people will take up healthy lifestyles that will matter.
