Is there any biological downside to eating an all-cereal diet? Guess I'd better ask before I order the year's supply. 

Guess it depends on your biological profile.:P
 
I'm not much of a cereal guy myself, save for a bowl of Irish oatmeal w/ fresh fruits - blueberries, preferably. I don't eat bread either, save once every x months when I indulge in a burger or a spaghetti.
 
We do indulge massively in these though:
 

 
We buy 6-8 of these boxes every week and I can't tell you how devastated we were when WF ran out of them for a couple of weeks. Of course there are alternatives, but these are just so darn tasty and lower on calories - 45 calories a bar.

They ring a bell...I might have had those before. 
 
Did you know that Whole Foods has been deliberately "running out of stock" of stuff in order to raise awareness about the food shortages which could result from the drop in the bee population? I've been going crazy in that store over the last year as many of my regular purchases have been going out of stock for weeks at a time. There was a period when you couldn't get any of their own brand almond milk, then it was peanut butter, and then the jars of Olympos beets (I love those so much that when they're in stock I buy like 12 jars of them and almost pull my arms out of my sockets on the walk home). Anyway....first world problems....

They do that on purpose?!!! That's unfair - I'm fully aware of the impact of the drop in bee population! :P
 
Do I need to drop a bucket of ice on my head to prove that I'm aware or do I need a special wristband? 
 
I wonder whether Trader Joe's been doing the same thing - they too have been running out of lots "essential" we do buy all the time. Like those bags of raw mixed nuts I eat tons of - they were out of them for over 2 months. 
 
That had a serious impact on my diet - I realize that it's absolutely insignificant relatively speaking, but I'm on very strict diet and that is the product I need, not one of the poor alternatives they have to offer. Our grocery list is actually a pretty rigid thing, there isn't much room for improvisation. And unlike in NY, where we used to just grab stuff for dinner on our way back at the end of the day, here we go once for the whole week. 
 
Considering that we spend hundreds $ there and chez Whole Foods every week, I think it's pretty lame that they'll punish me based on the assumption that I need to be made aware. 

rain - does the umlaut in the product name make them taste more metal??
 
 

Don't even get me started on that ice bucket challenge craze....

I've noticed far less organic produce at Whole Foods this summer. They seem to have been getting things in drips and drabs. And a lot of the stuff I normally buy has been low quality - for instance their organic red onions have been so rotten you have to rummage through 100 of them before you find an acceptable one, and their sunchokes have been all soft and moist and covered in purple blotches. I don't know how much of this has been to do with da beez but it sucks.

I can't stop eating deep fried bees.

Bee livers on cocktail sticks are nice.

I've had so much problems with my veggies rotting away lately, my greens in particular. Every Wednesday, I used to buy a big bag green beans, half a dozen baby bok choys and some brocoli, which would last me until the next Wednesday.
 
But they've gotten so bad that the last time, I only managed to fix one meal on Friday and had to trash the rest of my greens the following day.
 
So now, I only buy a fistful of green beens and go to the nearby Fresh and Easy during the week to grab more veggies as needed.

I hear it's all the buzz lately.
 
(Still better than posh, organic Caca Pops though...)
