If you’ve been trying to find the best route to Flavortown using Google Maps, that elusive destination might be as close as your local Walmart. Guy Fieri, avid chef, donkey sauce connoisseur, and all-around icon, says Walmart is the only place shoppers can stock up on his new line of Flavortown-branded frozen meals. It was announced that.
As of this launch, four Guy Fieri’s Flavortown meals are currently available, including the Cheesy Chicken Enchilada Bowl topped with crispy tortilla strips. Hearty Sloppy Joe Mac & Cheese. Italian mashup of pepperoni pizza lasagna. And sweet and sour pork. All four meals include one serving of each entree and have a suggested retail price of $5.94 each.
Fieri is the latest celebrity chef to introduce microwaveable food to Walmart’s frozen food aisle. Last month, “Bizarre Foods” host Andrew Zimmern announced the debut of his line of frozen home-cooked meals, “By Andrew Zimmern.” “I made these recipes myself every step of the way, with deliciousness, convenience, and affordability as the pillars,” he wrote on Instagram. “I think you’ll be surprised by the quality. They’re very good.”
Zimmern’s four meals (fortunately not based on anything Zimmern despised as “weird food”) include pulled pork mac and cheese, flavorful meatloaf based on his grandmother’s recipe; , which included a turkey dinner with mashed potatoes and green beans. Side; Swedish meatballs with gravy served over noodles.
And in August, profanity expert (and chef of several Michelin-starred restaurants) Gordon Ramsay also launched his own frozen food line exclusively at an Arkansas-based retailer. His eight entrees in the By Chef Ramsey line include classics like chicken pot pie, four-cheese macaroni, lasagna with bolognese meat sauce, lemon caper chicken, mushroom risotto, and slow-roasted beef in red wine sauce. Masu. There are also two of his meals inspired by British cuisine. Beer-battered fish and chips and shepherd’s pie.
“I’m thrilled to be able to bring some of my favorite dishes to homes across the country,” Ramsay said in a statement. “These recipes represent my life’s work and commitment to incredible taste and quality, and each represents a special part of my personal culinary journey. We are thrilled that these dishes are being made widely available for everyone to experience and hope they will inspire everyone to make home-cooked meals.”
Well then, here you go. One trip to Walmart is enough to have dinner with Andrew, Gordon, and Guy.
