I wish Whole Foods wasn’t so expensive or I’d shop there more often. When is the buyout? I’ll make a point of going there that day, at least.
I don’t know if the expense is due to the relatively low volume, or the very typical higher quality of their produce - probably a mixture of each, I would suppose.
Like anything else, you get what you pay for. Want pretty, but bland and tasteless fruits and veggies? Wal-Mart has them in abundance.
Want veggies and fruits bursting with flavor? Well, that is going to cost you, and Whole Earth Foods has those in limited supplies.
