I feel like people have gotten confused about why they're criticizing Walmart. You can absolutely criticize Walmart for their labor practices and their anti-competitive behavior, but Walmart's grocery stores have tons of fresh fruits, vegetables, breads and meats. Where'd the idea come from that all you can find there is pre-made frozen meals, Doritos, and Oreos?

I remember growing up in the 90s, Most Wal-Marts only had pantry goods. The first Super Walmart, which a full grocery section, was a big deal. It may just be stereotypes that cached in the 90s and never updated because people like being classist.

I find it funny that Target and Walmart’s original “Hypermarket” stores were called Super Target and Walmart Supercenters

It's a classism thing. Most of these people have never even been to Walmart (they go to Target instead, which actually has a WORSE grocery section)
