[Flagstaffsooner]

Does Bud Light count anymore?

[sooneron]

Yes

unless you shotgun a couple

[King Crimson]

Yuengling is pretty good. i used to buy it a summer i spent in Boston and a fall in Durham, NC. the porter i liked.

[instigator]

Believe it or not, it was a rib eye!!
Whole foods meat RMMFFO!!

[VeeJay]

rib eye!!
Whole foods meat

yummy

Yummy indeed, but $20.99 a pound in my parts at Whole Foods.

[King Crimson]

**** whole foods. i hate that place....they screw you for liking real food....even though it's just as plastic as anywhere else. but shinier and more expensive. you ought to see the stuff you can get through restaraunt meat distribs......tenderloin for a third of what you pay at the store. whole foods is charging you at least 400% markup on that.

[sooneron]

Meh, I like the place for an occasional steak, cheese, and fruit/veggies. The fish aint bad either.

20 bucks a pound for steak? Where do you live? Oahu?

[sooneron]

and Yuengling #5

[VeeJay]

Das right - the ribeye at Whole Foods is $20.99 at the one Mrs. VJ shops at in Plantation (Ft. Lauderdale), FL. I have been there with her twice and she doesn't even ask me to go any more. My bp goes through the roof when I see what she's paying for their stuff.

I'm in the food biz and anyone will tell you Whole Foods is a major rip off. I can't convince Mrs. VJ of that. A nutritionist told her to shop there and all the sudden now, she's an expert on hormone injected meat, pesticides and whatnot.

They do have an impressive wine and beer selection, and also have a full time dude tending to that department only. $$$ Cha-Ching! Labor is one of the biggest expenses in a food store, but it's futile to try and convince Mrs. VJ that we're payin' for this cat to hold wine labels up for little old ladies to mull over.

I will die penniless.

[sooneron]

I paid $16 for the ribeye. Them's NYC area prices.

[royalfan5]

Someday, I want to start a Grocery store called Half Foods, and all the meat will be raised with as much anti-biotic and hormones as possible. The produce will get an extra atrizine and bicep bath before being sold. I want bugs to die if they get within 50 feet of the store. It'll be awesome.

[VeeJay]

Roger on the $16 bucks a pound. At $20.99, they cut the ribeyes into smaller sections and marinated them for us.

I couldn't bear to watch as we went through the checkstand with barely enough to cover the bottom of the shopping cart and shelled out over a hundred bucks.

I thought you already did that by working for conagra/adm??>??

NOW you're talking. Close that puppy down two days a week with a big sign out front that says "CLOSED FOR FUMIGATION SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE"

for what you pay at WHole Foods, and what you can get through restaurant distributers per cost/per pound.....it's absurd the costs at WF.

i'll pay 18$ a pound for some prosciutto di parma at WF....when i want it and be happy.....but i KNOW for real i could slice that bitch off at 14$ a pound where i used to work and do it better....and have people coming back instead of an old prosciutto end getting naggy 'cause no one is buying it. and, i know what they pay for it from the distributer.

[sooneron]

OK, this thread is sucking are you a holes drinking or what?

The wife called and she will be late due to the fact that she left her keys in a friend's car and rode back to another friend's house without said keys. GAME ON!@

NEWS FLASH: Whole Foods pays health insurance premiums for its full time employees. That's six grand alone I'd save if I went to work there.

Hmmm......maybe I need to re-think my opinion of this fine, profitable company catering to the needs of the health conscious and environmentally concerned...

[VeeJay]

Yes, we're drinking god dammit.

[sooneron]

Yeah, due to the fact that she and the other chick that she left her keys with are 5 and 8 months pregnant respectively. Dumb broads

"Sir, while we appreciate your patronage, we'd appreciate it if you'd refrain from referring to our female guests in such crass and degrading terms. May I show you the shipment of organic pomegrantes we just received today? They're certified organic and have been lovingly inspected, fruit by fruit, by our QA inspectors in Austin."

On another note, have I shown the latest picture of the soon to be newest addition to the sooneron household??

[VeeJay]

Congrats.

Nice touch on the side of the head there.

When's the li'l 'un due?

[sooneron]

April 9

[King Crimson]

spring is a good time.

does anyone really think Belle and Sebastian are that great.....the only good stuff they do is a T.Rex rip off. i know they were handjobbed in that record store movie with that my top 10 guy---championship vinyl. where if you look none of the records are REALLY in that much alphabetic order but with "classic" records in the shoot every time. Jack Black, hot chick former gf, what the ****......can't think of it.

edit: hi fidelity. what's her name who is married to Kirk Douglas' son is hot as **** in that one.

[Scott D]

meh..I got my drinking out of the way while you schlubs were at work.

final thoughts.

WF sucks, if you have a Trader Joe's in your area go there. If not, then your area clearly sucks :D
