HUGE PRICE INCREASE
I have been buying the 365 Organic Corn Tortillas at Whole Foods for years....they have been 99 cents.....now they are $1.49.....what can have changed to justify such a large increase on this product. I have also noticed that other prices have increased at an incredible rate. DaVinci Chianti wine was $9.99 and zap it now is $11.99. Is Whole Foods losing money or has greed reared it's ugly head. Perhaps they have too many customers and are trying to cut the number down. This is a very good way to do that.... it has worked for me.

The company had a record quarter and the stock went down $8.00 a share because of the comments of the president that 2013 will not be a manner year. When the first quarter you had a great year. I believe you drove the price down in order to buy at a cheaper price and then the next quarter to have a windfall. Great time to buy
LACK OF PRODUCT
I went to Whole Foods in Napa, Ca on Sunday, January 27, 2013 to buy Xyliwhite Toothpaste and it was not stocked. So I asked the drug sales associate. She stated that it would be in on Tuesday, January 29. I sent in on Wednesday January 30 and it still was not stocked on self. I proceeded to come in Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, again. Product still not stocked. This is the first time that I have had to comment on poor service. I did at one time really like whole foods, but I think that I will shop for more of my organic and specialized products at the local nutritional store.
Rude Employees
Quality customer service and polite employees is not a concern at Whole Foods any longer. The specifics of my bad experience only add to the multitude already posted here, so details aren't necessary. It is obvious that Whole Foods has a surplus of customers and is not interested in maintaining existing customers. Sears, Border Books, Circuit City, and JCPenny all enjoyed customer surpluses and neglected them too - bye, bye.
The Final Straw
I have bought groc.. at the Redmond, WA W.F. Market since it opened, spending about $1,200 a month. I have become increasingly dissatisfied with the quality , selection and price. Quality and selection have declined. Price has skyrocketed. After viewing a video clip of the founders views on Obama-Care I did some research on him and have come to the conclusion that I will never step foot in a Whole Foods Market again. I had no idea that W.F. was so similar to Walmart in underpaying and mistreating your employees and deceiving the public all in the name of huge profits. Your founder has made so much money that even with no salary he is hard pressed to spend it all. What a despicable person and contemptable Company !
Whole Healthcare
Be advised my family will no longer shop at the Whole Foods store. The CEO of the corporation has made false and misleading statements about the ACA and the economic justice of all working persons having access to affordable healthcare through their highly profitable employers. And the WF corporate support for labeled or unlabeled GMO food is not helping the customer or worker either.
Working for Whole Foods
I just worked at whole foods and just got fired after sixty days. I asked for a piece of equipment that was needed and my manager never gave me the equipment. I was accused of not using it while a work. They have a team concept but do not comply with this team concept. Apparently I needed more training. They allow you 10 minute grace time and I was late for about 3 to 5 minutes because I had to depend on a family car to get their because my other family memebers work at other places. I always stood late pass the time I was supposed to work and did not get paid for it, They are very unfair to work for. I never received any type of warning and I also saw after I was let go that they had an add for another hiring for the position that I was working. They do not give their employees enough of training and there is no team concept. They lie so do not ever work for this company.
missing quality
At age 73, and a buying since 30 yrs in Berkeley, Ca. now find prices just keep going up but over-all quality moves in opposite direction,DOWN. AIR IN the stores is bombarded with very loud so-called music. Why? Just because they say organic doesnt make for good quality food. They also charge more and not pay well. Why? Change something Keep in touch with mission statement its good but in reality its not quality any more.

The whole foods in Deerfield Illinois told me the WF corporation will not allow them to sell SOY DREAM CLASSIC. They are pushing the 'enriched' version only. Who wants to spend money on vitamin pills. I want soy, not vitamin pills.
Whole Foods lies to their costumers on many issues. they do not train their employees. They lie about the quality of their food. This is organics for big business. There is no truth to their mission statement. Stand up for what is right and stop shopping at Whole Foods.
Its time for you to pull the plug on GMOs shame on you WFs for creating a false pretense that you are here for us giving us only the BEST!!!!!!! Well now the truth is out...you are giving us GMO laden foods and supporting the GMO industry in the process. I am boycotting you and recommending everyone I know to do the same and that is 1,000s of people over the US. On the other hand if you agree to pull all GMO food from your stores I will support you full on. Your Call. Make it soon though or you will continue to have a very hard time of it. We all know what you do comes back to you. Deceiption is not a happy return.
SHAME ON YOU WHOLE FOODS, Deception, lack of compassion for humanity, for the lives of those you sale your GMO crap to. Take back all the foods I bought that I thought were non GMO. Operation: Whole Foods Hidden Camera GMO Sting - Bait Organic, Switch to GMO youtube
WHOLESANTO! The word is out. WF sells GMO...........No money to Prop 37...
Whole Foods Market has gotten significantly over priced. They seem to have taken advantage of customers belief that there is something magical about shopping at Wholefoods Market. Keep it up Whole Food, a competition is coming...
Could you please give me name of the store manager of Whole Foods @ Bay S., Oakland Calif. Thank you!
I was disappointed to learn that whole foods uses conventionally grown produce in their warm self serve section. I asked the cashier if the vegies were organic and he told me that, unless they were labeled, they were not. Wow, so Whole Foods is serving the very customers that come there to find healthy foods toxic pesticides and nutrient starved food that was grown and contaminated by corporate criminals. With the horrendous plague of diet caused diseases that afflicts Americans today, (my 47 year old friend was just diagnosed with cancer), my opinion is that anyone that puts profit before people is just another criminal. I do believe criminals can be rehabilitated and hope that Whole Foods will rapidly correct their behavior.
Hey Kelly. I really feel like I know you since I've spent the beettr part of last night and today reading your entire blog. I was diagnosed with Stage 1 ovarian cancer at the end of last year and I'm in the middle of chemo and your blog fell into my lap when I was searching for resources last night. I found myself nodding my head reading a lot of your entries. Sounds eerily similar to a lot of stuff I'm currently experiencing. From the thinning hair to the Neulasta shots and port a cath scar. Thank you so much for starting this blog and even more thanks for posting the resources. I'm not able to work and although I'm currently on Medicaid I still have no income coming in and I'm hoping maybe to be able to receive some assistance from some of the places you posted. I hope you keep it up. You're an inspiration to cancer patients everywhere!
No spicey foods like peerpps are fine. They won't bother your baby in fact it may give him a taste for spicey food once he's born. When the baby is born and you are nursing, sometimes garlicy food can make your baby not like your milk. The things(at least the ones I remember) to avoid while pregnant or nursing:Alcohal (wine, beer, whatever it's all REALLY bad for your baby.)Caffeine (can stunt growth in large amounts a cup of coffee in the morning shouldn't be a problem)Some types of fish (because they can contain mercury)Poppy Seeds (also avoid these if you are taking a drug test they will make you show up positive LOL).Things just to avoid while pregnant (not a problem while nursing, if I remember right)Sushi (too much of a risk for food poisoning).Soft cheeses (also a risk for food poisoning).

SUBJECT: Washington, DC Whole Foods - Quality OF! As a CONSTANT this store continues to SELL BAD (THINGS) PRODUCE IE Watermelon, Peaches/watermelon Tomatoes Watermelon, a White Peach from the state of South Carolina-(UGH) that had small living things inside it's pit, looked as if they should be of birth from the sea! (Ugh)... I feel as an idiot. I continue to purchase produce, hoping for the best & all just gets worse! A designer candle (bad lot? to save WHOLE FOODS MONEY) that ruined my entire bath room wall & ceiling turning it gray/BLACK, before being noticed, but the smell was lovely...I took photos, am (writing the company) I am not. I will not return anything. Just the weight of melon alone IS ENOUGH TO... I want my money back! I could go on & on, but will save for THE MY WHOLE FOODS BLOG- (such a waste of time) BUT! Still I at least can be creative, posting photos of all as well. I must say IT THE STORE was so much nicer when first opened, the checkers didn't try & TALK TO PEOPLE, They just did their job. JOBS! As a vegetarian, I find it repulsive, (some ole' local DC man/woman)? Is "creating" the food bar, (for a HEALTHY FRESH FOOD STORE- AS WHOLE FOODS INDICATES? The choices such as Potato Salads are filled with Bacon (PIG) Ham (PIG) DEAD ANIMAL! All is bad enough, yet I have to see this in the store and try & not PUKE when overcome by the SMELL of Dead Chickens &...SUCH! One but not final - 365 Shampoo, while nice to smell is CRAP! CHEAP WATER #CRAP!!! TOO TOO TOO Much WATER. I already have this H2O product delivered to my home, thank you...I don't need to purchase again from Whole Foods.. I intend to make copies & spread the word! Ah' the greatness of technology. CUSTOMER SERVICE: I did call several times over the course of days. The answer "It's not called a store manager" "It's a team leader" "May I speak to (It-Them-Him-Her), Please?" "They can't come to the phone" "They are not available!" (SIGH-Barely).
After 15 years plus as a customer at Whole Foods I have found a lack of variety in apples, no organic grapes and something as simple as falafel and ready made sandwich selection as well as cheeses and charcuterie without nitrates. All of the above were found in two out of three of your Denver stores. Hardly a cultural metropolis compared to suburban Philadelphia and Center City with 3x the population. Shame on you.
