Whole Planet Foundation Campaign Kick Off
Together We Can Make A Difference
Have you ever heard the expression "Think Globally Act Locally"?Well, we would like to give you an opportunity to do both here, and help fight global poverty!We have made it easy for you to make a global impact by partnering with the very successful Grameen Bank and the micro-lending program that was so effective that it won the Nobel Peace Prize; here's what you can do to help...when you go to the register to check out, ask your cashier about making a donation to the Whole Planet Foundation; you can donate in increments of $2, $5 or $10. This small amount of money can make such a difference, for most of the recipients of these loans, less than $200 can mean the difference between poverty and being financially self-sufficient. We are very excited to be able to make such a difference globally by acting locally to fight poverty in so many of the countries that bring us our food! Thanks for shopping with us; together we are making a difference. To learn more about the Whole Planet Foundation please visit www.wholeplanetfoundation.org.

Wheel Cracking Event
12pm Free
Whole Foods Market's cheese mongers in the U.S., Canada and the United Kingdom will demonstrate the traditional method of breaking into 24-month-aged wheels of Parmigiano Reggiano using official tools (five different knives) from Italy's Consorzio del Formaggio Parmigiano Reggiano. The process of carving into and portioning each 85-pound wheel requires an expert hand and is usually done in about half an hour.
In 2008, Guinness World Records confirmed that Whole Foods Market, in its first-ever attempt, set a record for "Most Parmigiano Reggiano Wheels Cracked Simultaneously," with nearly 300 wheels opened at 176 stores. Whole Foods Market hopes to break that record with this year's event. The ceremony will mark the grand finale to a month-long spotlight of Parmigiano Reggiano, which will honor the tradition behind the "king of cheese" and highlight its versatility.
