Whole Foods Magazine Declared Mitch McConnell Their ‘Person Of The Year’ And Confused Whole Foods Shoppers Are Furious

Whole Foods Magazine, which has no connection to the grocery store chain, Whole Foods Market, declared Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell its “Person of the Year,” but confused Whole Food shoppers, who are, apparently, mostly left-leaning, thought their their favorite place to get vegan, fair trade, locally sourced, artisan organic products was vocally supporting a conservative and they completely lost their minds.

McConnell posted the Whole Foods Magazine cover on his Twitter and expressed his deep gratitude at being recognized for his contributions to the “natural products industry.” The magazine named McConnell their “Person of the Year” because of his efforts to legalize hemp farming and to prevent the government from prosecuting those who produce hemp and CBD products under marijuana laws.
