I thought supplements were treated different than, you know, actual medicine. That's probably why. But I've wondered that myself, too.
What I don't understand is that on the one hand they want to sell their customers wholesome foods --on the other hand-- they sell charlataney stuff, products of dubious efficacy.
If freaking 7-11 stores can sell me Aspirin tablets, I don't see how Whole Foods can't.
There’s an unfortunate crossover between people who want whole food and people who follow Gwyneth Paltrow, believe in Sedona vortex fruit cocktail crystal magnet medicinal woo, and have had their catalytic converter stolen 7 times for reasons they could never possibly comprehend.
What, pray tell, does having your catalytic convertor stolen have to do with believing in Goop? Last time I heard of one being stolen, the thieves didn’t bother to do an interview.
driving a prius ?
Arguably, Goop customers can afford a nicer car than a Prius
I've wasted much more time than I should have reading HN today but somehow this comment made it all totally worthwhile. Thank you!
I bet a different license is needed to sell "medicines".
