Great Value is one of Walmart's private-label brands. It covers a wide range of budget-friendly products, including groceries, household items, and more. Great Value products are designed to offer customers an affordable option while maintaining quality. Walmart markets its Great Value Sweet Potatoes as a nutritious side dish that can be steamed in the bag or cooked on the stovetop. The brand emphasizes its value and quality (when bought online, the product is $0.19/ounce in our area).
While the product is noted as a best seller on Instacart, Great Value's frozen sweet potatoes only receive 2.9 out of 5 stars on Walmart's website. That said, reviews are pretty evenly split between five (44) and one (52). Positive reviews emphasize convenience and value for price; negative reviews highlight a terrible texture and the product sometimes arriving moldy. So, while many Great Value products are indeed a great value, frozen sweet potatoes may not be one of them.
Coconut King Inc. positions itself as a brand that produces "Tropical fruit products that are versatile and convenient to enjoy." Its frozen purple sweet potatoes are the only ones of that color on this list. Note that these are purple sweet potatoes, not regular purple potatoes, which taste totally different.

Coconut King suggests adding its purple sweet potato to smoothies and vegan meals for a colorful, nutritious boost. These potatoes are meant to be convenient, having been gently steamed and then diced. The brand also hopes customers will enjoy the unique pop of color the potatoes add to their dishes.
While Instacart didn't have a rating for these potatoes, they are listed as a popular item. Because they didn't have a specific rating and might be a bit harder to track down depending on where you live, we've ranked them on the lower side of the list despite the lack of bad reviews.
