My main complaint with them is why they sell conventional at all... I think foods sprayed with poisonous pesticides should not be offered to humans at all and afterall they are supposed to have high standards which is why I end up paying top dollar there.
um, grow gardens!!

I'm going to get a good internet roation of shopping going so I can avoid Whole Foods all together, It's jsut to pricey for me
I may have Champagne taste, but I've got a Kool Aid pocketbook sooooooo.....It is, therefore, evident that it is possible to cure by foods, aliments and fruits; but as today the science of medicine is imperfect, this fact is not yet fully grasped. When the science of medicine reaches perfection, treatment will be given by foods, aliments, fragrant fruits and vegetables, and by various waters, hot and cold in temperature.

DON'T Drink the Kool Aid
Ok I must be the biggest cult like psychopathic socio idiological AMERICAN
I'm in love with WHOLE FOODS....
Can't even believe I made this rant when they first got here.
The Universe obviously adjusted my budget 'cause I go to whole foods like 2-3 times each month now
Plan on going for some Agave next week
and i even buy my prenatal (not poregnant yet) supplements from the Whole Body Store

While I'm thankful for the few grocery stores we do have that carry a wee bit of organic stuff - I'd sure LOVE a whole store of it!
You all are really lucky - our closest stores like WF, TJ etc are 4 hours away . . . *Ü*

I went to whole foods today...thirty mins from me. I found to go there w a plan and discipline, it can be ok cost wise.
I got what needed and was happy with my raw cashews and chia as well as my kombucha. I was thirsty n so tried to open it and drink some while in line,,,,well you know kombucha, it fizzed and sprayed all over. Embarrassing and what a mess.
Blessed to have such stores with variety for every taste.

going to WF tommorow or Thurs with a list and a firm game plan. I use to skimp on RAW produce cause we are a big family and eat so much. But skimp no more aiming for getting the best and making the investment in our health knowing that we are worth it and that there is plenty in the universe for our needs.

I am lucky. I have a WF just .25 miles from my house...yes, walking distance! And another great health food store .5 miles away.
I shop at the independent health food store first and then pick up what I can't find there at WF.

We call Whole Foods......Whole Wallet.
I can't believe their prices either! Thankfully our local grocery store has started carrying organic produce as well as an organic dry good section. Their prices are pretty good!

I have been feeling sorry for myself because the closest WF is 1 1/2 hrs away and I wanted to check them out. But, I have the best co-ops available about 15 miles away and they have really good prices. Many times the organic produce and fruit is cheaper than the non-organic in a regular grocery store. I'm blessed!

I would *love* if our area had a WF or Trader Joe's or such... the closest stores like those are 4 hours away either in Seattle or Portland. I am thankful for 2 local grocery stores with a nice organic section! *Ü*
