My closest Whole Foods is about 8 miles away. Can't see this affecting our little local food desert right now.

We have Ralphs, Stater Bros, and Vons (which I stopped using when I saw an armed security guard in the parking lot). Also Walmart, Target, Costco, and the Aldi that just opened. Otherwise it's all Hispanic and Asian.

A good, fully stocked, old fashioned grocery market is hard to find.
