Seems fishy to me but I guess at this point, bad press is bad press. Anyone in the unnamed Austin store know the real story here?

Only a fag would try to pull some garbage like this.
I have worked for that bakery before and they are very passionate team members . I solely think someone wants money and 15 minutes of fame
Reminds me of the time they tried using some amateurish cake pictures from another region onto a customer-facing iPad. I was on bakery team. Well the cake designs in those photos were atrocious (amateur hour, big time) and the app didn't work anyway. Plus they hard-coded in the pricing so all the prices were inaccurate within a couple of months, and they didn't get the electrical right so there were cables on the floor which customers would pull out all the time. After years of fighting with the REGIONAL PRESIDENT who had orgasms over anything with an Apple logo, they finally took the bloody thing off the floor. It had been switched "off" for three years. The sole purpose of that iPad was to impress people at the grand opening into thinking we were technologically advanced. What a crock. After that it just sat there dark, gathering dust.
Agreed on the piping. Amateur hour.
Yeah something is not right about the whole thing. Even if a tm had done this....it is not an accurate depiction of Whole Foods. Very pleased to hear WFM is standing by it's tms. The pastor is putting his drama/theatrical degree to use.
How about keeping sh--ty decorators out of the bakery... that piping is atrocious...
The pastor is lying! Just look at the pictures, its different piping work. People think they can run over whole foods. The company needs to back up TM's. United States needs a "loser pay's" law. Keep sh--ty lawsuits out of the court.
