Auchan is the French version of Wal-Mart with one exception – quality. The food you can buy at Auchan in France, Spain and Italy rivals and surpasses the quality of the food you can get at a Balducci’s or Fairway anyday – hands-down. See below some of the phenomenal seafood you can get, not to mention (nor feature) some of the incredible cheeses, mushrooms and pastas (especially the ravioli and agnolotti) under the same roof where you can buy a front loader washing-machine or trendy red acid-washed jeans.
