Yes. You could look at much of lower Alabama.
Food Deserts are typically defined as 10 or more miles from a grocery; but where no public transportation infrastructure exists, are practically much more compact.
Anecdotally, in a ~ suburban Alabama county, I have family that was 7 miles from a grocery until dollar general came in about 5 years ago.
