A Note About Whole Foods
No one knows what they're doing in Whole Foods. I don't mean the workers, I mean the customers. I observed this yesterday while eating my turkey sandwich from the upper mezzanine level at the largest Whole Foods I have ever been in. I had a great view of the Fresh Kitchen Sides, Sushi To-Go, and something else where they make Japanese food for you as you wait. Really, people just walk around looking confused. They'll stand in front of a display for awhile, debating what food to buy, and debating whether they really need 6 rolls of sushi for $7.39. The Kitchen Sides were rather indistinguishable from above. All I could see were bins full of differing colors and textures. I'm pretty sure even if these food items were at eye level, I still wouldn't be able to tell what they were. Several people walked around this display, eyeing a few bins slowly, and then moved on. It made me feel better that everyone else seemed rather confused at this shopping experience. I know that when I'm on the ground floor I wander around slowly, eyeing the rather high prices on tiny digital displays for each item. So thank you, fellow Whole Foods shoppers, for being just as confused as I am.
