I love the place, especially after it was re-modeled. I have had, and do have, a number of friends…read moreamongst the staff, who are always great to see, on regular visits, and the rest of the staff are always great too.
The store is clean, and shelves are orderly and well-stocked when they have stock. Sale prices are always a goodly contrast with the regular price, and at least make shopping semi-affordable there. Their prices are always at least a dollar more per item, than most other stores, yet one should still check, item by item, for where this is NOT the case.
The front desk people and managers are sometimes, off doing other jobs, so there is a wait at the front desk, to have things done, that only that counter can accommodate.
Though there is an area for getting mini-shopping carts and hand-held shopping baskets, at the register, near the automated registers. The baskets are often returned to the parking lot entrance, by staff, so that anyone coming in the front entrance, has to walk all the way out near parking, to get one, if they are not lucky enough to get one while they are near the front.
Sometimes, old produce is sold at the price of fresh, which should not be the case, at those prices, so it's best to fully inspect such purchases.
The small tables in the seating area have been replaced. The new chairs, accpmpanying them, are so hard that its not a relaxing or comfortable place for eating anymore, and they so cheap, that the finish is wearing off of them, already.......They look raggedy.
My new and most important addition to my revised review, is what has happened with 365 STEVIA POWDER. IT WAS BAD ENOUGH, ALEADY, THAT IT'S FROM CHINA, BUT NOW THE SUBSTANCE ITSELF, HAS BEEN CHANGED. IT USED TO BE POWDER, BUT NOW IS MORE GRANULAR, AND DOES NOT TASE LIKE PURE STEVIA. OBVIOUSLY THE PROCESSING HAS CHANGED, AND PROBABLT NOT SAFE !!! WHOLE FOODS ISN'T MAKING ENOUGH OFF OF CUSTOMER, SO THEY HAVE TO SUPPL;Y SNEAKY SUBSTITUTES ????
ANOTHER STAR LOST.
