I discovered there is a Fellini reality show filming in Vegas! It was at Whole Foods when I was there! I could not see the cameras or crew but I know that they were hard at work filming. I know this because there is no other explanation for the menagerie of humanity I saw paraded before me while I enjoyed my prepared foods & free wifi. (did not enjoy the Udon, btw, not great, you should skip it).
Among the wonderfunkfull assortment were:
-a couple with the largest height discrepancy I have ever seen. He had to be 6'10 or more and she was perhaps 4'6'' in heels.
-the tallest woman I have ever seen (qualified-the tallest woman that was not formerly a dude) easily 6'9"
-Mr. Universe wannabe and well on the way in a spaghetti string tank top over shoulders about 4 feet across. Tree trunk-veiny arms in need of a quick anointment with some Extra Virgin Olive Oil to complete the prep for the posing competition.
-A woman with the largest rack I have ever witnessed. I'm talking I felt sorry for her and was afraid one of those things was going to break loose and take out a check-stand.
-It goes without saying the usual tattoo and piercing crowd at this location.
While I have mixed feelings about The Food Whole I do continue to shop here from time to time. Mostly when I just want to hit the prepared food buffet & sit down with the laptop for a little while. I frequent this location when I'm in Vegas on business and I don't have dinner plans. I'm simultaneously attracted and repelled by this chain. The freak show didn't change that a bit.
