Produce
I shop for produce at two places and there are certain items I will get from each one. Luckily they are close to one another lol. These are my favorite produce items to snag from Whole Foods when I make a grocery run!
If you have never tried these ugly looking oranges, do it…I dare you! They will change your life and you'll never be able to eat another orange again. January - April are peak season for these bad boys and they are the perfect mix of sweet and tart!
Dekopon Citrus or Sumo Citrus
I love grabbing my micro greens from Whole Foods, especially this brand. They are always top tier, the price isn't too shabby and they are soooooo tasty!
Organic Rainbow Microgreens at Whole Foods Market
Some may say a tomato is just a tomato, but Whole Foods roma tomatos are always good. I have yet to buy one that wasn't near perfect or perfect!
Roma Tomato at Whole Foods Market
Meat
Meats that I'll buy from Whole Foods because they are worth it, easy to work with and organic. I always like to get organic meats to avoid alllll the antibiotics and nasty stuff the meat industry likes to feed animals to fatten them up.
This bacon brand has a chokehold on my husband and me. Warning tho, once you try it, you'll never want to go back to other bacon brands lol
Wellshire Dry Rubbed Organic Pork Bacon at Whole Foods Market
They are definitely more expensive than a Costco rotisserie chicken, but in organic food is your vibe, these are the way to go. We get one weekly and throw it into some meal we during the week. Makes life so much easier!
Organic Plain Rotisserie Chicken at Whole Foods Market
These are great nuggets and they don't feel chewed-and-glued, they feel like real chicken. I love that they are gluten-free as well!
Organic Chicken Nuggets at Whole Foods Market
Drinks
These are so tasty! They have a strawberry banana flavor and a mango version as well. I keep this stocked in my house and drink it almost daily.
Organic Dairy-Free Strawberry Probiotic Drinkable Cashewmilk Yogurt, 28 fl oz at Whole Foods Market
I also buy this bad boy quite frequently. Best tasting green juice I have gotten ever!
Organic Mighty Dozen Juice, 46 fl oz at Whole Foods Market
I don't drink orange juice often; but when I do, this one really hits the spot. It doesn't taste sugary and it's like, real juice!
Organic 100% Orange Juice No Pulp (Not From Concentrate), 15.2 fl oz at Whole Foods Market
Other Packaged Goods
These are foods that we keep stocked in our fridge constantly and use them weekly. Despite the price (which not all of them are costly, just a few here and there) they are worth it.
I am a huge pizza lover and this dough is out of this world. We can ususally make two pizzas out of it and it tastes so good. No lie, I don't wanna order pizza out anymore and we just make it instead!
Ancient Grain Pizza Dough at Whole Foods Market
This salsa and the red salsa in these same brand are staples in our house and we consume them regularly. Worth the price for some good ass salsa!
Home Made Salsa Verde, 13.2 oz at Whole Foods Market
Vegan Foods
I am not a vegan, but I have a friend who is and she has found some really stellar vegan products that even I, a meat-eater, will buy instead of the real thing!
These might not be a Whole Foods exclusive, but that's where I can find them in stock the majority of the time. We throw these in salads. The flavor is good and the texture is spot on.
Ultimate Plant-based Chick'n Nuggets at Whole Foods Market
This shit slaps! It's such a good vegan/dairy free version of sour cream that it's hard to tell that it is dairy free
Organic Dairy-Free Sour Cream, 12 oz at Whole Foods Market
My husband, a die hard meat love, really enjoyed these pepperonis on the pizza we made this last week. Aside from their appearance, the flavor is on point!

Vitamins + Holistic Medicine
I am a huge advocate for buying holistic medicine and supplements that are high quality. The more good shit there is in those capsules, the more good shit that's going into your body!
This is one of my favorite vitamin brands because you can see the process the contents went through before making it into your vitamins
Ashwagandha Root (60 Ct) at Whole Foods Market
I have a sensitive tummy and can't stomach ibuprofen and this is a great anti-inflammatory alternative that is natural
Turmeric Supreme Extra Strength (120 Ct) at Whole Foods Market
Another alternative for anti-inflammatories and pain relief. I use these all the time and swear by them!
Pain Relief Arnica 30x at Whole Foods Market
I use these sparingly when my tummy is feeling really yuck. Like, swamp-gut-possible-food-poisoning YUCK. It either works for you or it doesn't but it tends to work well for me!
Activated Charcoal 260 MG, 40 vegan capsules at Whole Foods Market
Expensive? Yes. The bottle says to take 3 times a day, but I consume probiotics very regularly and if you are just using these to fill in the gaps, they are stunning and well worth it.
