And already, we are seeing some of the problems with our foods that come from overseas...(think China currently)

To keep the cost down, fresh food will come in more and more from overseas.

"Whole Foods" growth is due to people who want food the way you do. But it's a lot more expensive. One of the reasons for this is that it is labor intensive. To keep the cost down, fresh food will come in more and more from overseas.

We moved to Colorado last December, and with that we began our first buying experience with Whole Foods. It is populated with libs from cashiers on up. But the food, especially produce and fruits are a cut above. Since there are just the two of us, and my specialty is creating unique leftovers, we don't mind the price premium. Strange about their CEO posting in chat rooms under cover. Maybe it's a "Vast Left Wing Conspiracy?"
