    Dizzy Why does Whole foods sell ben n jerry's?

    I typically go to jewel, but on whims I've been checking out whole foods lately... the other day, when going down all of the aisles and exploring, I noticed they sell ben n jerrys... and don't just mean strawberry cake, cherry garcia, and chunky money!! I mean, they ACTUALLY sell the indulgent chocolate ben n jerrys flavors!! Why is this? I thought Whole foods was supposed to be a health foods store? Ik they have a list of ingredients they don't accept, but I could SWEAR ben and jerrys MUST use AT LEAST one of those ingredients *hmm*

    Ummm the Whole Foods here has boatloads of chocolate pastries and such in the bakery...

    I think they are more bent towards organic stuff & where the ingredients come from. Ben and Jerry's makes a huge deal out of how their cows are treated well & not treated with hormones, so they fit the bill.

    Whole Foods isn't a health foods store in the sense that everything is carob instead of chocolate. They have desserts.

    I don't eat B&J too often anymore but I will say the owners are very great about being socially aware.

    Whole foods has milk, cream, sugar, chocolate, salt and all the other ingredients that it takes to make ice cream.

    Sugar is "natural" (maybe not high fructose but simple cane sugar) it's just not good for you lol.
