Ted ,
Bit off topic but do try their (wallyworld) Great Value brand of crushed tomatoes I think they are OK, but  a lot of great things have been said about them as well.

I agree with John,

...off subject here myself,I use the Great value puree ,or GV whole tomatoes as well as the crushed and they are all excellent for sauce bases.Its funny,I was telling a friend that it seems all the better stuff Im finding to use is the GV brand.I also did my own side by side taste test at home with all my local brands and the walmart GV won.
Red gold,red pack,hunts,del monte,furmanos,etc all lost to GV.I cant find cento or SM so I did not compare those,but you get the idea.Its good stuff.

Thanks for going a bit off-topic! Helped me a lot!

Ah OK so it is Wal Mart. That is just so funny that these store generic cheeses are so popular. Great news

Yep. WalMart. It's got a little "slime" (leftover brine, I guess) in the package, so it feels a little "eh" in the hand but it's really great cheese. No idea who makes it, but it's great. It's literally the ONLY thing I buy at Wal Mart.

Well I need to get over there!

[Mmmph]

I've used the "Great Value" Walmart brand whole milk mozz in the 1lb block. Saw it next to the Polly-O for 60% the price of Polly-O.

It's pretty good. I recommend trying it.

isn't the world great!  we can celebrate all of our different opinions!

I deal with pizza parlors every day... and test these products on a commercial level.

Since Kraft bought Polly-o... they have changed the cheese over the years... and I really do not like the product.

Grande is a great product... but i have been turned on to Bel Gioioso... and I am sold.  Bel Gioioso is the best in my opinion.

BG also has great burrata, crescenza, and absolutely the best, wonderfuly-creamy Gorgonzola.

Bel Gioioso is the best in my opinion.

Bel Gioioso is good. I've liked everything I've tried from them. I have yet to find any whole milk mozzarella from them that's not "fresh mozzarella" in my area, though.

Where can Belgioso be found and how much is it?
