Thanks to a tip off from my friend Susan - thanks, Susan!xx
... yesterday we checked out the new Wholefoods supermarket that has come to Glasgow!
I did a trip to the US in 2004, and one of the highlights were the wholefood supermarkets in each town selling lots of alternative and healthy eating goods with a conscience. I was actually stopped and asked if I needed help in the Alberquerque store as I was in a state of awe with my mouth open I think!
Well, I slightly revisited that state yesterday - as anyone with gluten or dairy intolerances will tell you, it gets a bit boring having to hunt for food, and having to go to several places to get specific things. Now it is all here under one roof, with brands like Orgran, Ecover, several types of dairy free icecream - not just vanilla! which I have been finding increasingly difficult to get hold of locally - plus the luxury goods like the deli, the chocolate aisle will have your eyes on stalks.
You can also check out their site to see if there is one near you.
I have been saying for years "wouldn't it be great if" and now it's here!
I love Whole Foods! However, a friend refers to it as "Whole Paycheck"... which isn't far from the truth :-)
