Guest guest Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 Ritzy Glitzy Whole Foods? I enjoy this store and I do compare prices and quality. They are good at providing samples, will order for you and call as soon as your order arrives, they carry their owen vegi burgers for a very inexpensive price, I can find Vegan Gourmet cheese and that isn't available anywhere else, neither is seitan or some of the other food items I use. They have a wonderful take out food area and most everything served is vegetarian friendly. It seems you have a personal vendetta directed at this marvelous store. They made it much easier for me to stay on the vegetarian track. The employees have offered me plenty of vegetarian help explaining how to prepare certain foods, recommending books, etc. They are a growing chain and they deserve to expand. I hope one day there is a Whole Foods in every major city so other members can experience shopping there.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 I doubt a week has gone by where I'm not in there for something. I wouldn't know what to do without this store. They have indredible milk substitutes and the prices on these are fantastic. It's not easy to find almond milk, chocolate boxed soy milk, I could spend hours in the tea isle and the bulk bins don't stop.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 I especially love their take out foods and the selections are wonderful. Not like any grocery store you'll find anywhere. I too hope to have one close by me. I've only had the wonderful opprotunity to go to one, when I was on a trip. We had the nicest vegetarian meal there.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 The closest Whole Foods to me that I know of is 3 hours. It used to be a Wild Oats. I don't know if WFs are franchised out for the individual owner to stock but the bulk selection at the one near us is not as good as when it was WOs. There are quite a few things that we used to pick up that we can't get any more and one employee told us they would not be getting lots of items back because of the branch change. We do still go there when we can since our local grocery is severly more limited.
