One of the things that I noticed in the grocery section of Walmart is that they have a smaller quantity of items on the shelf that will expire more quickly, such as ground beef. My guess is they know the sell rate of those items in that store, and are able to better predict how many will be sold in the next few days, to minimize spoilage. Not sure WF/Amazon has that skill, especially since Whole Food's margins have allowed for them to have a greater spoilage rate, while still having attractive displays of produce/meat.
