Whole Foods' newest store has hired someone to cut up your fruits and vegetables for you.
The store near New York's Bryant Park, which opened last week, features a "Produce Butcher" who will chop, dice, and mince whatever vegetables customers need prepared. Whole Foods will charge $1 per pound, or per individually priced item, Foodbeast reported.
The Food Butcher isn't the only upscale innovation that Whole Foods is offering at the new Manhattan location. The grocery store also has three full-service restaurants, including a sushi restaurant and the Harbor Bar, which serves wine and 24 beers on tap.
