16 Brands From Shark Tank You Can Find At Walmart Right Now

Back in the day, infomercials for products we never knew we needed (or even existed) were a constant source of unintended amusement. Who could forget the Ginsu knife, SlapChop, or Popeil automatic pasta maker? In 2009, however, this content became prime-time programming with the premiere of "Shark Tank." The twist was that, instead of trying to pitch products directly to the audience, entrepreneurs were trying to sell their idea to investors. Many of these products were food-related, and more than a few were flops — among these, a pump for peanut butter and a bacon-scented alarm clock . Other food products, however, are still on the market regardless of whether or not the company was able to entice the Sharks into opening their wallets. While some products may be niche items available only through the manufacturer, others are carried by major grocery chains like Walmart.

The following list of products available from that retailer includes both foods and beverages with a strong emphasis on the wellness and sustainability niche. Just for fun, however, we've also included a selection of wacky kitchen products that will take you right back to the Golden Age of Billy Mays and Ron Popeil.

Not too many beverage products have been successful on Shark Tank, but Aura Bora is an exception . Sure, it's a flavored seltzer in a market already overcrowded with these, but its shtick is that the product includes botanical elements such as herbs and flowers along with more typical fruits. Aura Bora's website currently lists 10 flavors (in the past it produced at least 20), but it seems that Walmart only carries three of them: lavender cucumber, basil berry, and cactus rose. As the retailer does have an established relationship with the supplier, though, it's possible that other flavors may be found in individual stores.

Copper Cow produces a variety of Vietnamese-style ground and instant coffees and coffee creamers, with the coffee beans being sourced from Vietnam. It could have been another "Shark Tank" success story since it received an offer from Robert Herjavec, but the deal never actually went through. Even without the extra funding, the company continues to prosper. Walmart carries several of its products, including its churro-flavored ground coffee and a kit for making Thai iced tea.
