Your interviewer is curious about how your idea of healthy eating and a healthy lifestyle aligns with theirs. Whomever they choose to hire, they'll need to trust to represent their company when engaging with their customers or with the public. So do your homework and align your views on living a healthy lifestyle through theirs. For example, they state online that Whole Foods strives to "provide the finest natural and organic foods available, maintain the strictest quality standards in the industry, and have an unshakeable commitment to sustainable agriculture."

"I would say healthy eating is something similar to eating keto-friendly, The Mediterranean diet of simple healthy ingredients that are naturally sourced, organic, from sustainable agriculture, with as little packaging as possible. I am not one to eat heavily processed foods, and prefer meat that is free-range, grass-fed, small farm, and wholly organic."
