Why this category prices the way it does
Snack pricing varies by storefront design — Whole Foods leans premium (kettle chips, single-origin), Aldi clones every major brand at 40% less.
Seattle grocery context
Seattle is Amazon's hometown — Whole Foods and Amazon Fresh have unusually deep local roots and high adoption. The metro is also dense with PCC Community Markets (a local cooperative) and Town & Country Markets, which serve the premium-organic segment that competes head-on with Whole Foods. Safeway, QFC (Kroger), and Fred Meyer (Kroger) handle conventional grocery. Aldi has zero Seattle metro stores — Aldi has historically skipped most of the Pacific Northwest. Walmart+ has limited Seattle proper coverage but works in suburbs.
Without Aldi as a discount anchor, Walmart+ is the cheapest broadly-available option in Seattle, but coverage is spotty in dense urban zips. For Prime members, Amazon Fresh from Seattle warehouses is genuinely cheap on Amazon Brand items and convenient enough to be worth the convenience premium.

Service fees, delivery, and tip all depend on basket size — the cheapest per-item service isn't always the cheapest overall.
