text: Key players in this fragmentation were the niche grocery stores that had begun rapidly expanding in the 1990s, such as Whole Foods Market (opened in 1980, now doing $15 billion in annual sales) and Trader Joe's (1967, about $9 billion today), followed by newcomers such as Sprouts Farmers Market and Fresh Thyme Farmers Market, hoping to cut in on sales at Whole Foods (dubbed “Whole Paycheck” by some for their comparatively high prices).
ref: 2017, Michael Ruhlman, Grocery, The Buying and Selling of Food in America:
text: Some critics indicted Whole Foods of misleading consumers about the products that they were paying through the roof for. Charges of elitism were common, as was the derisive nickname "Whole Paycheck."
