Я, наверное, немного неправильная яппи, потому что последний поход в Whole Foods вызвал у меня вместо должного удовлетворения и наслаждения одно раздражение

Они еще очень разные бывают - в том, который ближе всего к нам, вообще очень много чего нет. А цены да, выросли - на пример наши любимые Yo-Goat выросли аж с $1.49 до $1.99 - это за 8-унцивую бутылочку! Думали заказать напрямую через компанию - но на страничке вообще $15 за 6 бутылочек, не считая пересылки!
Я очень люблю Whole Foods, но перестала туда ходить именно из-за цен. Мы с Максом нашли один кооп, который теперь присылает нам раз в неделю большую коробку с овощами и фруктами. Стоит все это дешевле чем в WH.
у нас CSAs не дешевые, но в следующем году надо будет про это подумать. У нас зато есть магазин с овощами и фруктами, где меня цены и качество устраивают :). А вот крупы, фасоль и т.д. я не знаю где покупать, если не в Whole Foods.
Prices are crazy at WF. If I go an buy just a little bit of groceries, I end up paying over $200. And usually it is not enough to last us a week! I stopped going...
I've been very consistently frustrated with Whole Foods. I only go there if I need to get something very specific, I am pretty sure it can only be found there, and I can't wait for the delivery if I order online. I also used their bakery three or four times over several years, and that worked well.
I only go to Whole Foods to buy stuff that is not sold anywhere else (and then it's also expensive). No way I will ever buy any fruits of vegetables there - Russian store rules!!!
Enh, all the russian stores I've seen have good prices on fruits and veggies, but awful quality. The produce is rarely fresh, and even if it is, it's not the best quality.
I love Russos though -- definitely the way to go for the produce :)
Anyway, it's not like I have that option -- there isn't a russian store close enough to us that actually sells produce. I keep meaning to go to one to get farmers cheese, and I can't find time even for that.

They are also the only ones in the area I know of who sell unrefined sunflower oil and unrefined hemp oil.

I suppose sometimes finding an ethnic store would be good, too -- I know asian/mexican ones may have a variety of beans.
