Interesting, b/c I have never gotten that vibe from Whole Foods. I've looked into their employee programs and they seem fair and nice, but I can not go on personal experience as I have never worked there. When it comes down to it, it's still a J.O.B.! So, a job is a job. When you don't work for yourself you are at the control of your employer. I think Whole Foods started out as a dream and a great idea and I commend the owners for following thru and yes they are reaping the rewards of their hard work. However, I do see your point and I agree that if there is great local natural foods, going that route it much better! Hi Zach. Interesting, b/c I have never gotten that vibe from Whole Foods.

They are major and globalized. They do not treat thier employees well, or their providers for that matter. Essentially Whole Foods is the Wal-Mart of the organic grocery community. You would do well for yourself and your community by taking your buisness to independantly owned natural grocery stores in your area, farmers markets or ideally if you can a CSA. As for as Wole Fods goes do your own research and check it out. You know, Whole Foods is a very over-rated in practice and virtues. They are major and globalized.

That is so nice! Amanda, tell me about it! Crazy! I went to Whole Foods today to get a few bottles of vitamins and some raw crackers and the bill was $80!!!!!! Wow! I. have. to. stay. away! LOL!

They are kind of pricey though- 8 bags for $8.99. A lot of the things at Costco are organic(or at least they claim to be).

If I can't get all organic right now anyways, I might as well find products and produce that is just as good quality at a cheaper price! I'm glad you have an alternative and that this post helped!  I'm surprised there aren't more choices in San Diego.  Happy shopping (I love food shopping )! Your welcome!

Thats totally insane. I buy my medjool dates at Safeway which are grown in california. There are about 20 in a package for $6. (And the other types are dates are cheaper/more in a package.) Thats not cheap, but I could go through 5 dates in like 2 minutes. lol Holy crap! 2.34 for 5 dates!?!? Thats totally insane. I buy my medjool dates at Safeway which are grown in california.

It is really helpful. I just found a Sprouts about 10 miles away and was worried it would be pricey but now I am going to check it out. I am stuck with a "Henry's" here in San Diego but the variety is lacking. Thank you. Thank you so much for posting this. It is really helpful.
