Response To Lead Blog October 16

I've never really thought much about Whole Foods. I've been there a few times, and the only product I am familiar with is their fruit tarts. They are rather delicious, and I recommend them to anyone who loves some good desserts. Moving on, I thought the article was hilarious. Before reading it, I wasn't expecting to get a good laugh out of it since I don't know much about Whole Foods and what all they sell. I think the way the author exaggerated the events of her experience made the article all the more entertaining. That's the talent comedians possess. They are able to turn an every day experience into a funny story. I also agree that it is mind boggling how gullible human beings are. We believe anything that is said to have good for us. The idea of a machine that tells you how "ugly" you are sounds utterly ridiculous to me, and I couldn't tell if the author was serious or if she was just joking.  I think that this article was meant to satirize human tendency to easily fall into trends. It's interesting to hear some one's perspective on this topic. It's hard to pick which theory actually applies to this situation.
