Anybody have a Whole Foods Grocery Store around them?

BIG_DADDY · 11-30-2004, 12:49 PM

I have been doing more and more of this organic thing but it was really a pain and expensive. About a year ago they put in a whole foods grocery store down the street, I love that place. Not only are most things there organic but the price on similar products was found to be significantly cheaper than Safeway. I also love a place here called Trader Joes. I can get organic chickens there for $1.59 a pound and a dozen large organic brown eggs for only $2.99 If you have either of these stores around you should do yourself a favor and check them out.

I am pretty sure there is something of that nature around here but nothing large.

I remember when I was working at bowling center and a lady asked me if we had organic food in our snack bar. I told her that we didnt and apologized.

She told me how stupid this place was for not having it and how stupid I was.

If that is your kind of food then thats cool, I have no problem with that but don't expect food like that to be at a bowling center.

IT IS A BOWLING ALLEY LADY!

ok im done.

Cage free farm fresh eggs are the way to go. Taste much better. Organic veggies and fruits also taste better. We have an Akins natural food mart here, plus another smaller local health food mart.

Organic food? As opposed to what? Synthetic?

Not only is it better for you but it tastes WAY better than that shit I buy at Safeway or Alberson's. MOF when I do all my shopping there I swear I spend less. As an example a half gallon of organic soy milk at Safeway is $4.99 I can get the same thing at whole foods for $2.99

Yeah, but who can eat a whole cow before it gets freezer burnt.

No pesticide's on your fruits and vegtables and no antibiotics in your meat. Antibiotics are terrible for you.

I couldn't survive without plenty of antibiotics for my meat.
