One of the big questions on everyone’s minds following the recent acquisition of Whole Foods Market by Amazon.com CEO Jeff Bezos is what will become of the natural and organic grocer moving forward? The prospect of Whole Foods becoming more like Bezos’ other ventures is an ominous one for many people, especially because it affects something that’s very near and dear to all of us: Clean, chemical-free food.
To be fair, Whole Foods was already stricken with problems prior to the merger, including the presence of dangerous heavy metals like mercury and lead in some of its products. When independent lab reports confirming this were presented to Whole Foods executives, they basically ignored them and continued on with business as usual – which says a whole lot about the unfortunate direction the company was headed even without Amazon in the picture.
But now with Bezos at the helm, it stands as a very strong possibility that this investment guru will make things even that much worse by doing with Whole Foods what he usually does with companies he buys: Form a monopoly in health food. If his other endeavors are any indicator, the monopolized health food that Whole Foods sells will still contain toxins, GMOs, and highly-processed vegetable oils, but it will be even further “green-washed” as Whole Foods continues its descent into the realm of fake health food.
