Dear Editor:

I have heard recent rumors of the development of a Whole Foods in the valley, and I would just like to emphasize my excitement and support for this change.

Living up in Aspen, I find myself spending a fortune on groceries without getting the quality that I would expect from that kind of investment. Although Whole Foods has never been known for its bargains, it would certainly be refreshing to have a local competitor for quality among the valley’s already established grocery stores.
