Whole paycheck is their nickname. Been boycotting them for years. Would love to see them go the way of fit-to-break-the-bank foods. LOL

No company could be as bad as Whole Foods, as to prices:

If you don't shop there, why would you care whether they stay in business or not? There are some things at Whole Foods that are worth the price. Other stuff I buy elsewhere.

^^^ Yes, but then.... there are people who actually buy that stuff

Everyone is always looking for something new. Water alone isn't good enough anymore. We know we need water, but it becomes boring. So, novelties like that sell good. Some minerals from asparagus could make a bottle of water more nutritious, she said. But it's more important to eat "real, whole foods".

Once it made the news as ridiculous, they took it off their shelves quickly.

I believe there is another company just like theirs in the Houston area. Can't recall the name? Btw, was it My Fit Foods that had a section at HEB with a rep selling their food?

I don't hate a pricey business enough to hope they die on the vine and close. If it's too pricey for me then I just don't shop at that establishment but am happy that it's doing well, providing decent paying jobs and serving a segment of the population who likes to shop there. .
