I have a firend who is trying to start a food store that will carry spices,teas and natural foods.

It will be in a small farm city (19,000 people as of 2000 census)

I am curious as to what you guys would expect to be in a whole foods store. As of right now, i dont think meats are there. not enough people and its the older generation. What i mean by that is, simplicity. My grandpa is very simple. doesnt like all this "hippie" stuff that we call all natural food. Walmart is down the road, thats gonna be a issue possibly for the store.

Im just trying to help him succeed.

So, if you saw a new natural food store in town, what would you want to be in there?

thanks guys. I appreciate the help. i figured i would post here because you all are pros at cookin and what not. plus the forums are always active!
