Whole Foods: The whole truth
Whole Foods, the nation’s popular and fast-growing chain of “healthy” supermarkets, makes you feel good about groceries the moment you enter.
Guts of the article:
1. Food shipped to whole food are not made any environmentally friendlier than other food
2. Whole food still has a lot of junk food
3. Foods found in whole food does not have the lowest calories compared to food bought elsewhere.
4. Not all food According to the nonprofit Environmental Working Group, soft-skinned fruits and veggies, like peaches, apples and bell peppers, retain the most amount of pesticides. So buying organic versions makes sense.
5. Onions, avocados and corn are practically pesticide-free whether they are organically grown or not.
6. They do not provide nutritional information on any of its in-store prepared foods.
7. In its “Whole Body” department, Whole Foods offers a variety of “organic” soaps and health supplements. But there is no recognized “organic” standard in the personal-care industry.
Foodnews.org, the research group’s website, lists conventionally grown fruits and vegetables by pesticide content.
