The thing about Whole Foods is everything along the walls: produce, seafood, meat, cheese, bread, deli, bulk stuff, and prepared foods is GREAT, while everything in the middle is high quality but very limited selection of fancy brand names that almost no one else sells. If you’re in the mood for a bag of Cheetos, you are shit outta luck.
