I used to buy at WFM but switched to Jimbo's 100%. WFH has changed A LOT in the last few years as they have more pressure on profitability and they have traded off some of their original ideology IMHO. Lots of non-organic, non-local produce. Huge amounts of flesh; jam packed, a huge corporation... Jimbo's is local, small, has everything I need and the shopping experience is far greater. Lots of vegan prepared foods and bakery and they answer every single comment you write on the board. |

This is the worst Whole Foods that I have ever been in. I am from LA, and in the Whole foods on Santa Monica and Fairfax, they have much less meat and offer raw vegan food.
I was told that each Whole Foods carries items particular to the area they are located. So Hillcrest is so motivated by flesh consuption that they not only have as much meat as a regular store, but offer no raw vegan food?
I am having a hard time differentiating from this Whole Foods and another corporate chain. They do have good personal care products but the stench of blood fills the store. Rancho's is farther, but worth it.
This place sucks!!! |

They don't carry any Zen Bakery Production (from LA), like Jimbos does, but they have an overall great selction of other natural organic products. This store has a better fish selection than most San Diego organic stores. Whole foods also gives many classes on how to eat/cook healthy. Although it gets crowded at times, this stores has been postive for me--except for the employees. Many of them act strange and I even heard two employees talking about doing drugs (very unprofessional). |

a large percentage of whole foods' profits come from their sale of massive amounts of flesh to the upper class. |

I will admit that Whole Foods Market is not my favorite place to shop due to its huge department full of flesh products and often sky-high prices, but I do admire the fact that John Mackey, Whole Foods Market CEO, has personally gone 100% vegan. In their last monthly store flier, the title was |

Whole Foods, although it sells lots of meat and cheese is the most conscious corporation out there i believe. I think that its noble of them to serve Organic meats and cheeses that are farmed in the most humane way possible. People are going to eat meat, so you might as well raise their consious about that.
Whole Foods is great, but beware because sometimes they mislabel the stuff in the deli. There are vegan things that aren't labeled vegan and the things labeled Vegi that are prepared with the meat or cheese (so just ask first to make sure!)
Whole foods prides itself on not seperating people, by color, gender, or eating habits, all we need is just a little more love from the ones who get way too militant on veganism. |

corporate store - huge animal flesh department, veal and factory farmed duck. there is a boycott of wholefoods because of their refusal to remove these products of cruelty. support the OB co-op ! |
