About BEEF STEW
Great Value Beef Stew is a canned shelf-stable stew product sold under Walmart's Great Value private-label brand in the Chili and Stew category. The product is a ready-to-eat preparation of beef pieces, potatoes, and carrots in a seasoned beef broth-based sauce.
The primary ingredients by weight are beef stock, beef pieces, potatoes, and carrots. The sauce incorporates beef fat, modified cornstarch as a thickener, corn flour, tomato paste, potato starch, and caramel color. The product uses disodium inosinate and disodium guanylate as flavor enhancers — both are nucleotide-based compounds that work synergistically with glutamate to intensify savory perception. Textured vegetable protein made from soy flour with caramel color is listed as an extender component, which is a notable inclusion in a labeled beef stew product. This product contains soy and may contain wheat from flavor compounds. The caramel color used is a common coloring agent produced from heat-treated carbohydrates.
Per 100 grams: 81 calories, 3.81 g protein, 7.2 g carbohydrates, 3.81 g fat, and 0.4 g fiber. Calorie density is low, consistent with the predominantly aqueous nature of canned stews. The serving size of 236 g corresponds to approximately one cup. This is a high-sodium product relative to its calorie count; the sodium content is not disclosed in the available USDA data fields but is expected to be substantial based on the ingredient profile.
