If the only grocery store in a ten mile radius is a walmart, that's absolutely a food desert

Ok so we're talking about the 0.1% of people who that applies to.

You're telling me it's only .1% of the population?

Edit: Which, even if it is, that's still more than 300k people you don't care about.

If you're going to link a source you should check to see if it supports or contradicts your claim.

Food Desert : A low-income tract with at least 500 people, or 33 percent of the population, living more than 1 mile (urban areas) or more than 10 miles (rural areas) from the nearest supermarket, supercenter, or large grocery store.

Yeah, it quite notably doesn't say "unless that grocery store is a walmart".
