Is it cocktail time yet?

Yes, on Good Eats with Alton Brown, he is constantly in the Whole Foods in Marietta, GA. That store is expensive indeed, and my problem seems to be that I always manage to go there when I am hungry!!!

P.S. it's always cocktail time It's usually 5:00 somewhere, right?

One week (months ago) I decided to do my weekly food shopping at Whole Foods. Typical stuff, a few pieces of meat for the week, pasta, produce, canned veggies, bread, cookies, chips, mayo, rice, cheese, some frozen products, nuts, cereal...

My bill was $375.00

Most of the products I bought Mr. MomMom didn't like...either they "tasted like cardboard" or "it's not what you always buy!!!"

I could have spent about $220 for the same shopping at Smiths, or about $180.00 for almost the same shopping at Wal-Mart

Now, I go to Whole Foods only for specialty products..canned fire roasted tomatoes, good apples-pears-plums, cheese, sometimes meats.

I like Sunflower market better for "healthy" stuff, you're right Pink, it's cheaper than Whole Foods.
