  • They don't call this place Whole Paycheck for nothing. Some weeks ago, while I was at REI, I thought I'd feel good about myself and eat more organic food so I decided to come here. I casually walked in, and there was a little sample tray of chips and guacamole. The guac was pretty damn tasty, and I thought I'd get some. There they were, in dinky 8 oz containers. How much do you think they'd cost? $2.99? $3.99? Hell, even $4.99? Nope. $7.49!!!! For 8 oz of guacamole! Unless there's gold flakes in this tub of mushed avocado, wtf?! I know Whole Foods is all about organics, but everytime I walk around this place, I ponder how people can shop there regularly. I always leave with $65 worth of stuff, all in just one grocery bag, nothing of which in the contents I even remember later. Although this I remembered: the $7.99/lb salad bar. Ok, I can play at this game. I'm going to put one sliver of everything in my container and still be less than a pound. But guess what. No scales at the salad bar. Unless you're a whiz with weights, you're screwed royally until you check out. This pissed me off to no end. Now I know that for most people who shop here, spending an extra $5 on salad for one evening is nothing, but I still find this ploy particularly annoying. My container of spinach leaves, tomato slices, cucumber, some lentil couscous thing, and a tiny spoon of some curried tofu? $11.87. Friends, I paid $12. For grocery store salad. Whole Foods would definitely rank higher in my mind if it wasn't for the fact that all the organic stuff I usually buy I can get from Sprouts for $2 cheaper, at least. But hey, WF at least helped put organic food on the map and the quality of many goods is top notch, overpriced avocado slime or no. 3 stars.
