[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 301374, member: 1963"] Yeah. Whole Foods bought out Wild Oats a bit back and the very first thing they did was cut wages and benefits. I'm very disappointed in them. I shopped them when I lived in Chicago and then, after I moved to Northern WI, I used to carry a cooler down with me so I could shop with them. It's a shame as while I got my meats from a local co-op, we did like Whole Foods for the ornanic lines and house brands. However, you can get wonderful locally grown produce at Hispanic, Indian grocery stores. Russian/Eastern European shops have wonderful breads. The Hispanic stores often have very good meats at a fraction of the price you'd pay "outside" Hit Indian stores for beans, lentils, seasoning mixes, rice. It's all the same stuff Whole Foods sells. It's just that you have travel to get it. BUT, you can get it, and at a better price, too. [/QUOTE]
