Thoughts on Whole Foods Thanksgiving catered meals?

Anonymous
WH offers complete catered Thanksgiving meals for multiple people. Has anyone actually ordered these in the past? What was your impression?

I think Wegmans holiday meals are better. WF is just okay. When I got a turkey from WF that was raw, but oven ready, I baked it longer than the directions said to and it was still raw when I was ready to serve dinner. I think they gave me a bigger turkey than what the directions were written for.

Balduccis is so much better

Wasn’t there a total fiasco with their operation when people tried to pick up their Thanksgiving catering a few years ago?

My Wegmans is a well oiled machine.

The Whole Foods hot bar is just terrible. If their Thanksgiving meals are anything like that then hard pass.

Whole Food catered is okay. I hate to cook because no one helps me with the cooking or cleanup after, so I’ll continue to use it for big meals. Going out for thanksgiving though.

They’ve changed their whole ordering system again in the last couple months. I would give it a hard pass.

We're not really into turkey at my house. The turkey breast was a perfect size for us and came out nice and moist. Everything else was just fine but nothing special.

I had a WF catered thanksgiving meal a few years ago and it was easily the best turkey I’ve ever had. I was visiting someone in Doylestown, PA at the time so that me be part of the reason. The produce and other food items there tend to be better than here.

Okay Thanksgiving meal. The stuffing was horrendous but everything else was okay. Needed some doctoring.
