Why this category prices the way it does

Frozen pricing is dominated by Walmart and Aldi's vertical integration — Amazon Fresh's frozen selection is limited and tends to run higher per unit.

Fort Worth grocery context

Fort Worth's grocery scene is dominated by Walmart, Kroger, and Tom Thumb (Albertsons). Aldi has been expanding into the DFW Metroplex but Fort Worth proper still has fewer Aldi stores than North Dallas. Whole Foods has stores in West 7th and South Fort Worth. H-E-B opened a Burleson location in 2024 and is building out from there. Walmart's strong Texas footprint plus the South's 5% below-average pricing makes Walmart+ unusually competitive here.

Walmart+ is the cheapest broadly-available delivery option in Fort Worth — better Aldi coverage in North Dallas means the dedicated Dallas metro page applies more cleanly there. For TCU and Cultural District residents, Whole Foods on West 7th is the premium choice.
