Whole Foods Market
Post about how this wondrous store has changed your life. Or taste buds. 
So I bought some basil and garlic crackers from the cheese aisle. They're pretty good. Usually I don't like herbed crackers, but these ones had the right amounts. My family liked it too.
And I made some soup using Vegetable Stock from Whole Foods b/c I didn't have time to make chicken stock. It was pretty tasty, not as good as when I use chicken but a barely noticeable difference. |

Re: Whole Foods Market
we have a store like that but here its called Henry's Market. Most of the stuff there is good for you and tastes great. A bit more expensive then regular market food, but worth it.

Re: Whole Foods Market
I like whole foods, it's just a bummer because it's so dumb expensive.

Re: Whole Foods Market
I had some Vegan cake from whole foods which was GREAT! and some almonds which I feel taste better than the planters kind that I usually get (plus it was slightly cheaper than them too  )

I tried:
- Red Onion and Rosemary crackers, sold in the cheese area- not bad but the basil ones are better. the price is scary though.
- Roasted Vegetable Hummus- not bad but not great, homemade tastes so much better, this was kinda bland, missing flavor. I added some salt, paprika, and cumin powder but it still wasn't right.
and I discovered that in the cheese aisle they have a basket where they sell little samples of different cheeses, for $1-2 a piece, so I tried:
- fontina- soft and tastes kinda like mozzarella, didnt like it much
- aged gouda- the dark yellow one, tasted like a salty parmesan, I liked the Holland gouda better, this was too strong. It's good for grating though, I had some on spaghetti.

Re: Whole Foods Market
Assalamu Alaikum,
I love Whole Foods. It's one of the few places I've found that sells Chilean Sea Bass which I love  . The only other place I'll shop is Garden of Eden.
