This amuses me. Whole Foods bought out the entire first floor of a two-story Sears at a local mall. They have an entire restaurant inside. The prices are outlandish. I go to local farmer’s markets and get better food for lower prices. The only reason I go in there is to buy bulk grains such as quinoa, barley, sesame, and basmati rice.
Buffet's remark is childish. There's still a market for poisoned foods, for sure. But ignoring the trend toward healthy food does not seem like something the wisest investor on earth should be promoting.
JMHO
If there’s an Indian grocer near your home, skip Whole Paycheck and shop there. They have all of that (including the best basmati) and the prices are as Crazy Eddie used to say: INSANE!!!
