7 Frozen Foods at Sam’s Club That Just Aren’t Worth Your Money

For large families, meal preppers, or people who just like to save money on groceries, Sam's Club is a great place to do bulk shopping, especially when stocking your freezer.

While the warehouse store offers many great frozen food options, a good deal isn't always good or healthy. Avoid these finds on your next trip to make the most of your membership.

Fried rice is an easy meal made even easier and cheaper with Member's Mark Chicken Fried Rice. The frozen meal may be affordable, but people can't ignore the 1150 milligrams of sodium per serving.

The soy sauce, bacon, and corn syrup make this one of Sam's Club's more unhealthy options. Making your own fried rice can be just as affordable, and you can more easily control the sodium content.

Price: $12.98

A frozen pot pie is an easy, affordable, and seemingly health-conscious option for a quick lunch or dinner. An eight-pack at Sam's Club costs just $12.98. However, the taste and texture are often lacking.

Many customers complain about potentially receiving a bad batch, claiming the texture is incredibly dry and the signature, saucy gravy inside cooks away in the microwave.

Price: $19.98

Frozen chicken wings are a great protein option for any meal and are incredibly easy to prepare. This makes Member's Mark Oven Roasted Chicken Wings look like a steal.

However, lower ratings complain that the wings are too salty and have a fatty, unpleasant taste and texture. Opt instead for unseasoned wings so you can control the salt content yourself.

Price: $10.98 (on sale from $12.98)

Sam's Club advertises that its Member's Mark Tempura Orange Chicken is a fan favorite, but the new recipe change has many customers upset over the thinner, vinegar-heavy orange sauce.

You may consider another brand or your favorite local restaurant if you want a more authentic taste.

Price: $13.48

The packaging makes Just Bare Lightly Breaded Chicken Breast Original Bites at Sam's Club look like a delicious, healthy, and affordable option. It touts the 16 grams of protein per serving and the lack of additives or hormones.

However, many unhappy customers call out the chicken for being greasy, mushy, and flavorless.

Price: $9.33

Skip on Don Miguel Chicken and Two-Cheese Mini Tacos next time you're at Sam's Club. Even though you get 56 miniature tacos for a reasonable price, many reviews state that they have a bland flavor and dry texture.

As an alternative, buy the ingredients you need for tacos in bulk, like prepped chicken, cheese, and tortillas. You'll still be saving time and money while getting the flavor you want.

Price: $13.48

The Member's Mark Southern Style Chicken Bites state that the breading has a hint of dill flavor, but many unhappy customers state that they taste like straight-up pickles, something that even the pickle-lovers seem to take issue with.

Shopping at Sam's Club is a great way to save money on everyday essentials, especially for large households that buy in bulk, but low price tags are sometimes indicative of a product's quality.

Next time you stock up your freezer with Sam's Club finds, be sure to see what other reviewers have to say so you don't end up throwing away something you already spent money on.
