5 UNDER $5: THE BEST NEW PRODUCTS TO SHOP AT WHOLE FOODS THIS MONTH

The products at Whole Foods tend to sell for a premium, turning your monthly grocery bill into an overwhelming expense. But there’s a good reason why. Whole Foods Market stores have an unbelievable local produce selection, organic offerings, an unparalleled cheese counter, and a hefty hot bar for shoppers to enjoy. But not everything at the grocery chain will cost you an arm and a leg.

If you’re stocking up for your next outdoor BBQ, or simply want to treat yourself on your next grocery haul, try picking up some of these new-to-store items. For less than $5, you can find your next favorite product.

Chocolate Eruption Cake Slice

For those with a chocolate addiction, this slice of cake will do just the trick. For just $4.99 a slice, customers can enjoy this bakery find without the need to purchase an entire cake. As one shopper put it, “It is EVERYTHING! Layer after layer of deep dark chocolate cake with a smooth chocolate ganache drizzle on top that makes it look as intense as it tastes. 🤎 A chocolate lover's dream for under five bucks!”

Dream Horchata Rice Drink with Cinnamon

Believe it or not, fall is right around the corner, and there’s no better way to ease into the season than with this tasty horchata beverage. Made with brown rice, cinnamon, and vanilla, this plant-based flavored milk is a fun way to doctor up your at-home beverage creations. You can pour it over ice and enjoy it as is, mix it into a latte, or get even more creative in the kitchen. Best of all, this entire quart is just $1.90.

Sea Salt Pretzel Flats

365 by Whole Foods Market is coming for Snack Factory with its own take on the irresistible pretzel flats that are perfect for dipping. A bag of the grocery chain’s pretzel flats costs just $3.69 and makes for a great party snack.

Berry Chantilly Cake Slice

While it may not be new, this is the best time to stock up on the chain’s viral hit cake.
