We have a Whole Foods here now too. I like it and actually use it
fairly often for some ancillary things they have like bulk bin flours
of a specialty type that are less expensive than anyplace else.

Ours also has a nice selection of smaller bits of cheeses that let me
try something fancy for a bread making experiment without breaking the
piggy bank.
