| - I like it!
If you haven't been to this particular location in the last few years, they have done renovations to improve store flow and number of items stocked.
Butcher case is OK, I'm surprised that relatively few meats are "hippie meats" (ie--grass fed, no cage, highest standards of animal welfare). I guess you still have to buy frozen at the farmer's market in Madison for that. You won't find any particularly unusual cuts here (no chicken feet, backs, or salt pork)
Cheese section: Good, Wisconsin cheeses are mixed in with international cheeses for those who demand to know source of origin.
Fruits and veg: Always lookin good, as is true of most Whole Foods. Keep your eyes peeled for the excellent guacamole.
Supplements & Beauty: Have no idea what's in this aisle, has a crapton of stuff. Most of it seems to have Vitamin C, D, or Homeopathy.
Frozen food: Relatively few frozen foods available. Unsure if this is because there aren't as many organic frozen foods as conventional frozen foods.
Prepared foods: Hot bar, salad bar, $7.99/lb. A little known fact: at breakfast they have oatmeal, scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, bacon, and breakfast tacos. The oatmeal is really good because you can add blueberries, almonds, and dried fruits. The hot food bar closes about an hour before closing.
Deli: Sliced cheeses and meats open until close, rare in many grocery stores! The house deli meat is very good. Cannot speak for the other prepared foods behind the deli case.
Bakery: DELICIOUS, pricy side, the sweet baked goods are excellent, as for the savory baked goods, the baguette is not THE best in town (Batch!) but tasty, and the Seedlicious bread is awesome.
Did you know that you can get a refund for any reason with the food packaging and a receipt within 30 days? Awesome in case you get something that just doesn't work out.
If you've been to a GIGANTIC whole foods store with 20 different soups and a gelato bar, you may be disappointed. For Dane County area, it's good, and my go-to when I want something to eat quickly without stopping in a restaurant, as well as their yummy fresh guacamole.
