Listening to the others, maybe yours and my Whole Food stores are exceptionally bad. I do get an obscene vibe from my local one.
Here in Oregon, in early June we have wonderful strawberries that are so tender they can't ship and people go nuts getting them fresh for about 3 weeks. Of the 7 grocery stores in my biking radius, WF was the only one who didn't carry local berries. Never did figure that one out. Even Trader Joe's managed to find some space near the beef from New Zealand... |
