Whole Foods shoppers, most of whom probably form Bernie Sanders' base, can unintentionally say some of the funniest things. This humor comes from their "bobo" background. "Bobo" is a word coined by New York Times columnist David Brooks as an abreviation of the words "bourgeois" and "bohemian" although a more accurate description would be "bolshevik" and "bohemian." In any event, they are so noted for the outlandish things they say that there is even a Facebook page called Overheard at Wholefoods. The wildest of the overheard quotes were compiled by the RealClear website.

I shave with organic butter. And oregano.
Psst! PJ. No clickbait please. Just post the dang thing.
“Whole Foods shoppers, most of whom probably form Bernie Sanders’ base, can unintentionally say some of the funniest things. This humor comes from their “bobo” background.”
We used to call them RDB’s. Red Diaper Babies.
#10 on the list on the Realclear link: did the compiler of that list honestly not know camels are mammals?
Um... That would be impossible since it is chock full of embedded video.
I shop at Whole Foods often but not exclusively, this is ridiculous. It is a good store and I have heard the owner is a conservative.
I usually go there for fish.There is a sign that says their fish comes from Pigeon Cove in Maine. I told the fish monger that they should change the name to maybe Seagull Cove, as the thought of a flock of pigeons flying over their fish is not really one I like to think about.
Try the calf liver. It is cut like a steak.
Yeah, the owner of the store has actually trashed Soetoro-care in numerous op-eds, and has given money to conservatives in elections. This makes the liberals’ religious zeal for his store especially hilarious.
Liberal money going to conservative causes is necessary in order to take our country back from them.
Shhhh! Let’s not tell the liberals the owner is a conservative, OK?
Of course! This means that we have to trash Whole Foods publically, of course, since liberals are insipid creatures who love everything (they believe) conservatives hate!
The last time I was in Whole Foods the hippie chick bagging the stuff said out of the blue “John Lennon was the greatest musician ever”, my response was “Yoko Ono was the greatest argument for high capacity magazines ever”. I don’t think she got it, but I enjoyed the moment.
Man Jack and your screen name. ;-) I am sorry for the humor.
I brush my teeth with baking soda.
“I would have taken communion today at a wedding, but they didn’t offer a gluten-free Body of Christ option.”
“She’s a witch in training. She’s been reading crystals since she was 2. She’s 8 now.” (I’m guessing that this was a California Whole Foods - an especially extreme variety.)
“Whaaaaaat! You don’t sell camel milk!?”
“We basically made pina coladas but instead of rum we put in kale.”
...the cashier asked the woman in front of me if she’d like to donate $1 to a world hunger organisation. “Do they give the people meat?” She asked. “Because I’m a vegan. I don’t believe in people eating meat, so I wouldn’t want to donate if these people were being given meat.”
I have relatives who buy only organic foods, and they are some of the most conservative people on the planet.
I wear my Vietnam Vet cap into Whole Foods expecting that some aging ponytail will scream “Babykiller!!!”
No such luck. Besides, I see active duty soldiers in there all the time & get vet’s discount at checkout with no lectures about donating `for the children’.
Bummer....
