On their Facebook page, Whole Foods Market announced today that Katy, TX, is getting a store.

Congratulations, Katy!

I don't know. The Facebook post only listed the cities of the next 9 stores. No other details.

The website doesn't say anything about it.

Well, in only one hour, there are 428 comments on the Facebook post from people, mostly suburbanites, lobbying to get a Whole Foods Market in their town, so for many people, it is considered a win to get one.

I can't decide if I'm thrilled or horrified. Traffic in this area is already bad enough ... a Whole Foods on the corner opposite HEB and Home Depot might put me over the edge. Would have preferred a Whole Foods back behind La Centerra.
