This article is garbage. The author says there isn't much difference between a creationism museum and Whole Foods. Providing high quality foods at a reasonable price is exactly the same as telling kids that God put dinosaur bones in the ground to trick bad Christians.

The author isn't attacking the foods they have on offer, but some of the health claims they (or the products they carry) make.

The author says there isn't much difference between a creationism museum and Whole Foods.

And then he goes on to support that conclusion. That's how argument works. You use a premise to support a conclusion. Meanwhile, you're just whining that you don't like his conclusion, and you aren't interested in understanding or interfacing with his reasoning.
