I'm curious how much their business will drop during the next economic downturn. Many items at WF are a luxury and when disposable income decreases, a lot of customers may look elsewhere.
I worked at Whole Foods then and I was surprised with the China thing. With all the U.S organic farmers they didn’t need to get organic products from China.
What do the 365 vegetable bags say now?
@ZcBenhs-3tjn only half right on the Chinese veggie thing. i worked there then. They did not deny it, they provided ye olde third party organic certification on it to explain the sourcing, and did not remove the China from the package. close, but no cigar
You must not have worked at WFM when the 365 frozen vegetable bags all had Product of China printed on them. Guests were outraged, there were news stories done about it and WFoods denied it and quickly took it off the packaging.
Publix has organic raspberries for .99cents a box this week.....
Wfm starts at 15 an hour only to keep the unions away.
In other news water is wet. Every other grocery market out there pays $7.25-$12hr.
Whole Foods starts @ $15. Team Leaders making $38hr. God forbid retail worker's made a decent living :rolleyes:
Take your cheap a-- to the conventional store and keep getting your food from China LOL
My grocery store has frozen organic broccoli florets for $1.98. Whole foods conventional are $1.99. Better quality as well. No reason they need to charge that much. But hey we love vegans and hate plastic straws!
