Where are all the whole food stores in the UK?
as an american living in the UK I cannot find a good whole food store here. Can anyone tell me where I might find one in the Marlow/Wycombe/ Maidenhead are?
Answers:
You can check this website to do a search. Unfortunately, outside of the major cities, the UK doesn't have the same range of choices as in the States, although you can find some small shops here and there. However, there are quite a few organic produce box schemes that will deliver a box of fresh organic fruit and veg right to your door. They also tend to carry fresh breads, dry goods, tofu, etc.

My local Tesco has quite a good whole food department. It is a massive store though. You might find that some of the smaller ones don't carry so many lines.
Have you tried health food shops like Holland & Barrett?
The best known national chain is Holland and Barrett
You can find your local store here:

The best organic chain is Fresh & Wild (now part of the American 'Whole Foods Market' group):

Why dont you look it up in your local directory?
Try going to an Asian market, any Indian or Middle Eastern food store, there's a better selection of whole foods there.
