Whole Foods Schmole Foods
It's hard to find fault with Whole Foods, the haute-crunchy supermarket chain that has made a fortune by transforming grocery shopping into a bright and shiny, progressive experience. Indeed, the road to wild profits and cultural cachet has been surprisingly smooth for the supermarket chain. It gets mostly sympathetic coverage in the local and national media and red-carpet treatment from the communities it enters. But does Whole Foods have an Achilles' heel? And more important, does the organic movement itself, whose coattails Whole Foods has ridden to such success, have dark secrets of its own?
Com muita boa vontade, na Slate, Field Maloney discute os defeitos da comida orgânica em geral e da rede Whole Foods em particular. Há mais críticas que Maloney não faz e que não cabem em um blog de culinária, mas os leitores do Garfada devem se interessar pelos comentários sobre o frescor dos alimentos orgânicos vendidos nas lojas da rede.
