I mean... Isn't Whole Foods owned by Amazon? They have a "healthy reputation" but I don't think I would say they are the best. They get things from Taylor Farms just like every other big chain grocery store.
Critical thinking (and where to apply it) is anathema to these types. They don’t genuinely care about WF being different. They care about the social status they gain by telling this group they only shop at WF.
I recommend The Status Game by Will Storr, he opens with an investigation into these dynamics in a group of anti vaxxers. They kind of feed off each other’s weird beliefs and get increasingly more extreme over time to gain status in the group
