Why not just call Whole Foods The Organic Overpriced store? I went in there today to get some fresh Miso salad dressing. They stopped making it. A tour through the rest of the store led to lots of label reading. Every item on the label has the word ORGANIC in front of it. Jeez ( Read more... )

Actually, it is almost illegal to sell unpasturized juice. A few hold-outs like Arden's Garden are fighting it and therefore are able to still do it, but it is really getting rough. There were a lot of e coli cases a few years back from unpasturized apple juice and there's been a crackdown.

Ijust know it's pointless to drink pasteurized juice because it turns into sugar water.
Arden's has a disclaimer on the bottle. It'd be great if other juicers could do the same thing.

Is buying a juicer an option for you?

Not at this time-living in an apartment with limited space.

we have a new grocery store right by my house called 'food depot' My bill at the end of the shopping trip is 1/2 what it would have been at publix, kroger or ingeles.

The food there is even less than what I would pay at BJ's

the store is on the corner of Bells Ferry and 92...

oh yeah, and they have generic brands that actually taste GOOD!! wow, what a concept!
