7 Dollar Tree Grocery Items with the Most Customer Complaints
Dollar Tree is a go-to spot for affordable groceries, but not every item is a winner. Some products have been met with disappointing feedback from shoppers who say the taste, texture, or quality just is not up to par.
Based on reviews from Dollar Tree’s own website, these are some of the lowest-rated grocery items available. We want to hear from you, too. What Dollar Tree food or drinks do you dislike the most?
7. California Farms Evaporated Filled Milk
Shoppers thought this milk had an odd taste and were surprised to find soybean oil listed as the second ingredient, right after fat-free milk. The unusual mix left many feeling misled by the packaging, which featured a cow, and unwilling to buy it again.
- Rating: 3.0 from 4 reviews
6. Pampa Wide Egg Noodles
Several customers complained that these noodles turned mushy when cooked, ruining their dishes. If you shop at Dollar Tree, this is one you would want to skip.
- Rating: 2.5 from 13 reviews
5. Risparmio Grated Topping with Parmesan
This grated topping was described as nasty by reviewers, with some saying it had the powdery consistency of coffee creamer rather than real Parmesan.
- Rating: 2.2 from 9 reviews
4. Harvest Hill Butter Flavor Pancake Syrup
Reviewers were especially harsh on this syrup, calling it disgusting and the worst pancake syrup they had ever tried. One reviewer mentioned the smell was horrible, too.
- Rating: 2.0 from 28 reviews
3. Pace Mild Nacho Cheese Sauce
This cheese sauce was described as being bland and awful, falling far short of customer expectations. Other reviewers described it as watery and said the color wasn’t right.
Rating: 2.0 from 2 reviews
2. Supreme Tradition Garlic Pepper Seasoning
Instead of a balanced garlic and pepper flavor, shoppers said this seasoning was overwhelmingly salty with hardly any garlic taste at all. The imbalance made it difficult to use in cooking without overpowering the dish.
- Rating: 1.3 from 4 reviews
1. Chef Boyardee Beef Ravioli
Out of hundreds of reviews, many customers said the ravioli was watery and soup-like, with very few actual pasta pieces in the can.
We put this as the number one item because even though its star rating is higher than some products on this list, the sheer volume of nearly 700 reviews makes it the most complained about food item based on online reviews.
- Rating: 2.0 from 699 reviews
