im telling you that if you buy chicken breasts from WF or WM its the exact same quality because it comes from exactly the same supplier to the storage warehouse

Ok well first off that isn't what you said. You're changing your story now. You said meat/fish/etc which I can immediately tell you is just a completely false statement.

Second off, the chicken isn't even the same. Organic free range chicken at whole foods is not the same shite as he Sanderson farms crap at wal mart.

And I don't even like Whole Foods. But to say the meat and fish are the same as Wal Mart is idiotic.

Wal Mart has a tiny organic selection vs most of Whole Foods being organic. If you shop organic Costco then Whole Foods and Trader Joes are your cheapest options in Baton Rouge. I have literally made spreadsheets on the prices.

Wal Mart is extremely expensive for organic food.

I appreciate that but I'm engaged to a woman.

Still, flattering.

It's unfortunate you don't live near an HEB Central Market. By far and away my favorite grocery store.

A lot pf their damn customers have been traveling all over the country protesting, marching, and wrecking shite!!

So they essentially boycotted one of their own, thru their own bitchy behavior

Why? Because WF has brain washed enough people to believe that paying a premium means high quality? Trust me when I say it's all bullshite. I know someone personally that sells produce for a living and I promise they sell the same shite to Wal mart as they do WF.

You want high quality food you have to catch it, grow it, or raise it. And that still doesn't guarantee anything. Quit being a sucker. Shop at your local grocery and be done.

YOU said meat/fish/etc are the same meat at WF and Wal Mart.

Sorry I didn't realize I was communicating with a special needs person.

I laugh at the tards in these threads who think you can get the same meat, seafood, produce, cheese, etc at Walmart as Whole Foods.
Keep up the good fight.

I'm not much of a WF shopper before the attacks start

Once I experienced Trader Joe's, I could never really understand how Whole Foods stayed in business. I don't see any point in Whole Foods unless it is the only good meat/fish counter in your town or you just really love the prepared food.

Look for me in the Boston Globe next week. I'll be the guy on the front cover with a sign that says "this meat is a sham because a random guy online told me to trust him!"

If it's farmed raised, it's the same Chilean trash that all other grocery stores sale.
