Is "Whole Paycheck" an unfair nickname? What's been your experience?

Yea, I love Whole Foods but don't shop there because it is too expensive. Costco carries Buffalo and Organic Beef. |

Yes, it's much more expensive. You get better quality products though.

Their housebrand foods are comparable to food prices in other stores; however, trying to buy meat there for a family of 4 was tough. A pack of chicken was running me close to $15 whereas I might spend $5 for it at regular store and in that same regular store, the organic pack might cost me $8.00.

Yes. It's probably closest to Publix which I've found to be the most expensive standard grocery chain in America.

What's King Kullen, Pathmark, Walbaums, or Shop-Rite?
Ah, regionalism. |

Whole Foods is one of the greatest corporate scams going for the granola/lefty crowd. Please keep shopping there. Please?
