By now some of you may have heard about the disgruntled Whole Foods employee who recently quit his job and sent out a company-wide email with many of the company's faults. Although I don't care much for the gossip, I can see how one could become annoyed with a company green-washing down to its core and yet being so obviously oblivious to its environmental impact. You can read it here.
As a rule though, don't expect too much from grocery stores... they only sell what people will buy. This applies to many shops that still want to do what's right but need to pay the bills. So as a wise friend of mine once said (and it's been said before) "every purchase you make is a political decision."
