Whole Foods

As the end of the Whole Foods tour approached, dinner plans had already been made. Virginia and I combined our money to purchase chips and guacamole, made from the avocados removed from the shelves as they become less fresh.

We chose the guacamole that weighed the least, therefore costing less. Then we made a beeline for the chip aisle, where we chose the cheapest tortilla chips on the shelf. Making our way to the check out, we knew we were the first ones to choose and purchase our food.

With our spare time, we sat at a table by the front window of the store and ate our guacamole and chips while people-watching. Soon enough, though, we finished our "meal" and decided we needed a sweet dessert. We headed back into the store and browsed the chocolates, cupcakes, and baked goods, finally deciding on a slice of Black Magic chocolate cake to share.

While the cake was delicious and completely satisfying, we found it ironic that Virginia and I managed to choose probably some of the least healthy items offered at Whole Foods. When we make a return visit, we might try to find something a little more wholesome, but on this trip, guacamole and chocolate cake were calling our names.
