    If supervalu, Safeway, or Kroger were smart they would all pull 2 ailes or more in there stores and under cut Whole Foods by 25 to 50% on the over priced items Whole Foods sales. Whole Foods is living a dream, fat un-healthy (so they have been talked into believing) Americans of the upper middle, wealthy class are making this chain go. Whole Foods will run into what takes care of most retailers the end of new customers and the slowing down of growth. One day people will weak up and understand people are living longer because of better health care in America not because of some magic foods sold by health food stores (and Whole Foods). Let the fad die and you will see Whole foods go by the way side.
