Whole Foods was criticized for selling peeled tangerines. I am shocked at the waste of plastic, time, and money. This is double shocking because Whole Foods prides on sustainability. Well, plastic is definitely not sustainable.
I am sure the manager who came up with the idea is being chided right now but it’s a good lesson to always be alert and to really embrace the core values.
PS
I personally like Whole Foods but the price is way too expensive…Whole Foods stock? Well, I considered it when the Whole Foods stock crashed but with Wal-Mart, Target, Costco, and all retailers becoming more fresh and sustainability focused, I only see more competition and lower profits.
