Opens in 2012, somewhere on Nicholasville Road. Guess it will be close to Whole Foods.

There's a Whole Foods on Nich. Road?

Either way, Trader Joe's isn't just organics. It's also a specialty store that offers a lot of international and wholesale goods. They have nice cheap wines (higher quality than Yellowtail, by far, for a lower price. They have some special contract that allows this), as well.

90 parking spaces? A tad much, I think. Nicholasville Road needs to go the route of the complete street (better yet, encourage high density living along said complete street) and kick trucks off, as well.

all it is is over priced private label food made by butonni, frito lay doritos motts, etc. and a lot of it is made in other countries. they do not support local farmers most of there produce comes from other countries. I noticed a week a go they had a small avacado from guatamala for $1.78 and if you go to Walmart you can buy the same size avacado from a local farm for .59 cents.

most of their food is also packed with sodium and high fructose. i dont't consider that healthy. Nor do i consider frozen, boxed, canned food healthy.

I had no clue and actually cruised by there today! Good heads up! I don't venture out that way often. Not big on strip malls.

You must not because Whole Foods has been in that location for several years and before that it used to be Wild Oats.

Might there also be other good things about Lexington that you have "no clue" of? Maybe you should get out more often.
