Whole Foods/John Mackey Controversy Heats Up.

WASHINGTON POST

Austin-based Whole Foods continues to garner unfavorable national attention--because of recent comments by its CEO John Mackey.

NPR, The Nightly Business Report on PBS and many newspapers and websites are reporting growing discontent over Mackey's WSJournal Op-Ed about "ObamaCare."
At least 16,000 unhappy consumers have added their names to a boycott Whole Foods page on Facebook.

Meanwhile, Mackey has had no comment to the boycott calls. He is reportedly hiking...hopefully not on the Appalachian Trail.
