I’m not sure Bezos intends to keep the whole “earth mother” organic yuppie health food business model. Most analysts I’d listened to believe he bought it solely for the over 400 refrigerated stores to be used a retail outlets to jump immediately into the grocery. Most believe he’s going for the Wal-Mart, Kroger type grocery market share not the “Whole foods” market.
Hmmm. I can open carry in my local Kroger (Smiths) and no one even does a double take. You know. Just in case some angry carrots were to attack me. ;-)
