This was my first time in a Whole Foods market. I must say, I expected more. I have Celiac Disease, and require gluten free foods. I was staying in Las Vegas for a week, and wanted to minimize eating out because of my gluten issues. I fully anticipated being able to find foods for me at WF. Others in my party were able to buy a wide variety of freshly made foods from the various food stations throughout the store. I, however, was able to buy only one single serving pizza and some sliced deli meats. Nothing else ready made was gluten free. They had never heard of Paleo Wraps, never mind carrying them. And when I asked various staff whether something was gluten free they didn't even know what I meant. Seriously??? That would never happen at my local health foods store!
The health food store in my home town is half the size, and has twice the variety of foods available for those who must eat gluten free. Even their deli has foods for me that are ready to heat and eat. I will never again wonder what I'm missing by not having a Whole Foods store nearby.
