Whole Foods MarketReviews of wholefoodsmarket.com

I liked this company until I experienced the magnitude of discrimination and ignorance within the store. Specifically (inner harbor ,Baltimore md). The customers are very privileged and rude. The staff are unapologetically disgusting. Dogs walking around food / hot food bar . Pan handlers bathing and using the public restrooms as their own. Customers knocking over items or breaking them and not taking responsibility for there actions. Staff are very judgmental and nasty towards ethnicity that are not their own.

As someone that used to work at a Whole Foods, the management is a total joke, they do very little to help the people that work underneath them, 🙄 the food that is put out on the self serve hot bar; isn't cooked fresh, over 90% of the stuff you see out there are items straight out of the freezer from other food industries. Everything is too expensive for no reason other than because of slapping an organic label on it, you are better off going to Wal-Mart; at least the prices there are somewhat reasonable, let's not forget there were a couple of roaches I saw in the kitchen as well, not tiny mind you,bought the length of a human thumb. 😀 Cleaniless is questionable 🤔, a lot of the employees particularly the kitchen bare minimum work is done, like the self serving spatulas, spoons, etc are just tosses into the dish machine over and over, nobody bothers to properly scrub them down, and wonders why food is still stuck to it.

The takeout food is loaded up with junk ingredients then they through a bunch of black pepper in to cover it up.

I had a self check out issue and the clerk could not be more helpful She could not fix it so called Nichole to help. Nichole was very condescending and rude. As I was walking out she was very sarcastic so I decided to talk to her manager. She told me she didn’t care today was her last day WOW. I sure hope wherever she goes she is not dealing with customers When I talk to Eric he said he would take care of it Maybe Whole Foods in Fort Myers on Daniels Pkwy should let her go now with all the damage she is causing on her last day

B&W cookies sub par. Texture was off. Felt like plastic. Got heartburn. GF likes them though.

Allowing pet dogs around the open food buffet is very unsanitary. The hair, fur, collect the dander. It can also carry other allergens like dust mites, mold, and pollen in the air which gets into the food buffet and can cause sickness for humans.

The scale in the meat department is off. I paid for 3.7 lbs of shortribs and received 3.1 lbs. I double checked with other weighted items to make sure my scale worked properly. I also bought a chuck roast there and when I started cooking realized it was a bunch of different pieces of meat tied together with a string to make it look like a big chunk. Not buying meat here again.

There are a very few items that I really like from Whole Foods and the place is so damn expensive that I basically have to wait for the items I like to go on sale or get the at a “last chance” sale and then they are gone forever. It becomes ridiculous but they do have a lovely cheese selection but again basically have to wait for a sale to buy it. People are always friendly.
