Guest guest Posted December 17, 2004 Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 Hi all, Until September, I was a rep for 60 organic food companies and I serviced every health food store in AZ and NV. I've been in the Natural Products Industry for many years in the retail, wholesale and manufacturing sectors, and have certainly seen a lot of dramatic changes in organic foods. In January of 2004, Entrepreneur Magazine listed organic foods as one of the top 10 fastest growing industries in America. Although Whole Foods tends to be spendy, shopping there can take the guesswork out of choosing quality organic foods. Every item on their shelves goes through a very restrictive and time consuming screening process before it is approved. If a product isn't clean, you won't find it for sale at Whole Foods. All the best, Michelle http://www.holisticmenopause.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 18, 2004 Report Share Posted December 18, 2004 I was amazed to see a bottle of Cottonseed oil on our local Whole Foods shelf, all is not well there- nor the big push in the bakery section of using rapeseed- now morphed in to Can(ada)ola Oil, so I won't purchase andy of the store lines of a lot of things because they must have made a whopping good deal with the manufacturer on the stuff , 'cause it's about nearly in all their store label products, if you love it that's great! I don't.
