Although I appreciate Whole Foods Markets, I was sad to learn of their Wild Oats Markets acquisition.
I hope both Wild Oats Markets in Satna Monica will remain, but particularly the one at Fifth and Wilshire beca-sue of its downtown location and easy accessibility.
I would like to pint out that every Tuesday Wild Oats offeres a 10 percent discount for senior citizens. Whole Foods does not.
The 5th and Wilshire Wild Oats also has a community meeting room. The Whole Food on Wilshire does not.
I appreciate the friendly and helpful employees at Wild Oats and I wish that their jobs and Wild Oats will remain.
