There are several categories where I believe Whole Foods market is culpable in creating misconceptions; and I believe they are guilty of intentional fraud in fostering/teaching "health benefits" for practices that are indeed unhealthy for some people, if not much worse; including but not limited to the value of their natural foods (which contain MSG and 40 hidden names for MSG according to Truthinlabeling.org and MSGtruth.org) but they do not warn health- conscious consumers who come to WF market mainly because they believe they are getting additive-, perservative-, pesticide-, GMO- free, and MSG-free foods).
I believe WF Markets in Annapolis is also responsible for failing to weigh containers to substract the cost of the container from the cost of the foods at the hot and salad bars, etc. there is a story on the internet where they apparently settled a law suit in the hundreds of thousands for doing this; but it apparently has no effect on store in Annapolis, to my belief.
Whole Foods Market has mislead me and others, who may have been severely harmed by WF Market claims about the healthful benefits of JUICING vegetables and fruits. I am aware of one gentleman, who believed that juicing was just as healthful as WF's teaches that JUICING is very beneficial; but I believe he, and others suffered, just as I have, from the loss of nutrients from fruits and vegetables after being JUICED, because WFM fails to instruct the customer that they must circulate the juice in the mouth repeatedly to ensure that the digestive enzymes in the saliva, mix adequately to ensure good digestion of the juices.
there are medical professionals on-line who say that JUICING will result in a loss of nutrients unless one swishes the juice around the mouth 30 to 40 times to allow the enzymes in the mouth to digest the nutrients before swallowing;otherwise the juice goes through the digestive system without the nutrients being utilized by the body as effectively. Considering these drinks costs from several dollars per tiny glass of a few ounces, to as much as $5 or more dollars per a small glass, I believe this is a serious RIPPOFF because the consumer buys these expensive drinks because she/he believes she/he is getting more nutrients by JUICING, not less.
WFMarket continually teaches that it is good to eat raw foods; but when I believed that they knew what they were talking about, and followed their teachings, it lead to a year or more, of serious digestive issues, that have caused much gastric and physical pain and emotional and financial distress.
Also I believe WFM was sued on the west coast, for failing to put correct prices on foods. this happened to me recently, after I noticed that the price on the shelf for the fruit I bought was less than the price on the receipt, which I did not notice until after leaving; and happened to look at my receipt; the price was higher, never lower than the price on the shelf. I am tired of being ripped off both physically, financially, and emotionally, and tired of being feeling defrauded.
