It is true that Walmart settled the dispute over food sold by weight.

Customers who qualify for the $45 million settlement, which includes weight-based items like fruit and meat, must submit a claim by June 1st.

In the US, Walmart is a retailer with more than 4,600 stores. Fresh food is sold in the grocery section of the majority of Walmart stores. A lawsuit was brought against Walmart in October 2022, alleging that the retail giant overcharged customers for food that were sold by weight.

After learning about a Walmart settlement for produce purchases via email, a number of VERIFY readers, including Michael, contacted us to inquire about its validity.
