I agree completely, but still find Whole Foods to cater to a niche market of the same sort of people who drive the Toyota Prius. The fresh, localvore ethic they put forward has been pretty much standard fare throughout western Europe for decades. Unfortunately, good fresh food isn't yet mainstream in the US.
