Do you know of any other investments in this growing natural food area that might be good at this time or in the near future . So far I have looked at Oats, Whole Foods, and Hain. They seem a bit high but ,as has been stated here, this is very dynamic industry. Probably the prices will be substantially higher in two or three years. Also, does any one know the growth rate of the organic/natural foods sectors as a whole? Is it strong enough that the major markets will either buy up Whole Foods, Oats, Hain, or just try to overwhelm them with their resources? Any opinions on this prospect.

Anecdote: When I go into Safeway, I have a hard time find quality foods that I want to buy, When I go into Wild Oates or Whole Foods, I see lots of quality products that look very appealing. How many other Davids are starting to think along these lines?
