Here, Whole foods is referred to as Whole Wallet. Great food but wow. Trader Joe's has the best cheese for such a low price. Some of their stuff is terrific and some is so so but the atmosphere is unbeatable.

Lol, we call it Whole Paycheck! There is another excellent organic food market called Earth Fare, prices are more than Traders, less than Whole Foods.

Ginna, have you looked at Aldi's? That is Trader Joes parent company, so they may have some of the items you need.

Doubt it very much. More likely in Miami or Palm Beach area. Or Tampa.

I can't afford Fresh Market's high prices. And they don't have much that's unusual. Same old stuff at higher prices.
