It's a shame the franchise they're putting in isn't going to benefit the community in a healthier way, yet, I'm not surprised. So much junk is hawked, I desperately want a 'Whole Foods' to be built in the West Valley as they only have them in the more affluent East Valley of Metro Phoenix, as if only the affluent care about health and quality foods.Bohemianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03743017084098726581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-39038377289701405012022-06-03T13:39:11.063-04:002022-06-03T13:39:11.063-04:00Those FDG never sell anything but pure shit.
