[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH and I just discussed this and he supports me. I only shop at whole foods b/c I don't have to sort through all the crap that isn't really food to find actual food (box reading just isn't going to happen with a toddler in tow) and the quality is infinitely better for produce, meat, bread and basically everything else for not that much more money. Every time I walk into a "regular" grocery store, I wonder why the hell we can't just produce food in this country that isn't full of a bunch of chemicals and crap that make us fat and mess with developing brains.

You can't control all the cr@p that we're exposed to but for the things we can control, like the quality of food we're purchasing, why not try to minimize exposure that way?

I totally get where your wife is coming from. [/quote]

You realize that Whole Foods has plenty of "crap that is not actual food", right?

Also, it's not that tough to look at the label of a thing while you have a toddler in tow, unless your toddler has 4 arms and the power of levitation.[/quote]

Yes, it is that hard to look at labels for every single item being purchased with my toddler in tow. Guess you got an easy one or you're just a better mom. [/quote]

not pp, but why are you reading labels EVERY time? You don't have certain brands you just go to and buy?[/quote]

Yes, I do, 365 brand at whole foods. We shop quite quickly w/o reading labels anymore. According to this thread, however, my brand choice is unacceptable bc it's whole foods and lacks the chemicals and additives and tastes better to me, just as I'm sure your brand has/doesn't have the things that are important to you.
