And food is what, five percent of the floor space?
How much food can they be selling after you remove the booze section from that?

They’ve been promoting fruits and nuts for some time now.

Yet another reason for me to not shop at Target. I hate that place — they seem to jump on every trendy, PC fad there is.

It will flop horribly. If you’re looking for fresh healthy foods target isn’t the first thing I think of. Of course I worked there for a while and it was the most demoralizing job I ever had. So I’m kinda biased.

Kraft products suck. I started paying attention to what I buy from them after one or another of their pro-left, gay, etc... efforts.

Their products seem to be ultra-processed, inferior and consistently bland.

“The move is designed to” ... increase profit per sale by offering high-profit “healthy” items.
Marketer: “These cookies have “healthy” on them. You can charge more!”

When your customers are waddling down the aisle then you know you need to stop selling food that includes ingredients that are feed to cattle to fatten them up.

I hope this works but two things - target’s produce has never been very good so it’s not a place we’d think of going for produce — and several attempts of restaurants and stores to sell healthy chow have been rejected by consumers. We will see. Oh yeah, we won’t shop at target until they take the locks off their shopping cars so they can roll thru their da@@ed parking lot. It’s very difficult having to walk back and forth a dozen times between their stalled out shopping cart and your car carrying your groceries in your two hands
