Back in the days when I used to bathe regularly, I would go in there
sometimes -- it was called Bread and Circus then.

Whole Foods gets no encouragement from me, on general principal.
Even 89 cents/LB is a ripoff. I'd like to buy grain in 50 or 50 LB
sacks, at least 25 LB.

I know stuff costs more than I expect -- my last 50 LB sack of flour
cost $20.85, ~ 42 cents/LB. But cripes! -- $1.39/LB for glutenless
grain, not even processed to flour???

Don't get me started on Whole Foods.
