Tofu Sabotage Debacle at Whole Foods!

The New York Observer | Daily Transom

As vegetarianism becomes more commonplace, how much more often will we hear stories like this one, from Tofu Sabotage Debacle at Whole Foods!:

At the Whole Foods in Union Square, at 1 p.m. today, an employee came barreling through the store. The very upset and very loud chef had an important message: The tofu had been cooked in meat juices!

The busy store went quiet. Three vegetarians—or were they meat-eaters who happen to like fermented soy products?—anxiously, embarrassedly shifted out of the market's well-groomed lines to return their lunches.

There's more to it than this, of course, but you'll have to follow the link to see just how messed up this whole situation is. I have a love-hatefrustration relationship with Whole Foods Markets, and this article doesn't do anything to ameliorate that!
