Citizen journalist blogs about Whole Foods fight
Intrepid citizen journalist, Fronnie Lewis, knocks us out with the latest round in the Burbank Whole Foods bout.
In a development that has surprised many, Whole Foods, a giant in the natural and organic foods business, has emerged as the Rocky Balboa in the controversy surrounding a proposed market in the equestrian Rancho District of Burbank. Like the tenacious pugilist in the first Rocky movie, the project at the corner of Main Street and Alameda Avenue has taken a vicious beating from its adversary - in this case, a group of relentless Rancho residents. Up until the March 20 Burbank City Council meeting the possibility still existed that Whole Foods might squeak out a victory in the last round and win approval from the council members.
