We linked up a story two days ago about Whole Foods which mentioned that Wal Mart was getting into the organic food market. Looks like it's happening sooner than we thought:
The new Wal-Mart Supercenter going up at West Plano [Texas] Parkway and the Tollway in Plano is not like any store shoppers have seen before.Wal-Mart did not want anyone to know what was happening inside the building until now because of competition in retail.
...
There is a selection of fresh sushi, and a beer and wine selection one would expect to find at a liquor store with 1,200 different varieties available. A computer can tell shoppers which of the hundreds of wines go with which foods. And there are 500 items that are either all natural or organic.
I also think it's great that the opening of a Wal Mart warranted a live feed from the local newsies. Gotta love America!
