While I applaud the stand they are taking against this killer product, it does seem a bit hypocritical that they will continue to sell junk food and liquor.

- cheald 13y agoI agree, they should do a full rebrand and only sell organic kale and granola.
- viraptor 13y agoOr not take it to any extreme and just remove the most unhealthy products? Possibly replacing them with something on the healthy side of "neutral", without going into "only organic" craze either.
- cheald 13y agoWhat are the "most unhealthy" products, exactly? Where do you set the bar?
- MrZongle2 13y agoWell that's the problem, isn't it? The bar never stops moving. Today, it's cigarettes. Tomorrow, it's e-cigarettes. Then it's sugary sodas. Then cookies. Eventually, the store sells tofu and free-range cotton balls.
- cheald 13y agoNot just that it never stops moving, but that it's arbitrary. What I consider unacceptably unhealthy is entirely different from what you may consider unacceptably unhealthy. My original point was that if we're going to eliminate all the unhealthy things, we might as well just keep going until we're all buying nothing but raw vegetables.
- viraptor 13y agoYou don't have to choose a bar, choose the worst thing first and see if you think it's something you're ok selling. Repeat until content.
- jack-r-abbit 13y agoContrary to popular belief, granola is not really that healthy.
- cheald 13y agoHeh, I know, but it made the sarcasm a bit more clear.
