We don't have a Whole Foods here. We have a Fresh Market, which I think is very similiar. In a couple of pay checks I may have to go treat myself.
We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

Now tagless for your comfort.
You just have to resist the desire to try the shiny new foods.
Hellloooooo. It's me here. I'm like a magpie.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
The Whole Foods here is great for organic produce (most of the other grocery stores have a pretty tiny selection) and the cheese section, which is one of the only places I've found to consistantly have vegetarian-rennet cheese. I've been buying the 365 Organic Pasta Sauce lately -- it's organic, relatively cheap, and a pretty good basic bottled sauce.

I didn't say that I resisted the shiny new foods. That's why I don't go to Whole Foods very often. I'm the person going, "Ooh, heirloom tomatoes! Oh, look! Chocolate-covered ginger."

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I'll wander good grocery stores for fun. When I was in NYC, Trudy took me through one in Grand Central Station and let me walk amongst the shiny. Bliss.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Chocolate-covered ginger."
Your Whole Foods lets you do that?
Right on.

I love Whole Foods special fancy almonds (the real name of which I'm blanking on). They're skinless and extra salty and I can go through a container of them in under 10 minutes.
They also have a really good chocolate selection. And, as Cash has discovered, cheese galore. Mmmmmm. And I also like their butcher counter--applewood smoked bacon is teh yum.

I like their 365 coffee. It's quite good and no more expensive than other grocery stores or specialty coffee shops. So far, the Whole Foods here is the only place I've found fresh figs. I'll go way out of my way for fresh figs.

The Marcona almonds. You can also find them in the nut section of Trader Joe's...
I'm not allowed to have them.

I go to WF primarily for their meat, till I can find something more local.
