This isn't too surprising here.

According to a new study, Whole Foods is the most expensive grocery store chain in the United States.

The study was done by Bank of America and Merrill Lynch. They gathered information from ten studies in eight different markets for a year.

If this has you wondering which grocery store chain is the least expensive, it's Walmart.
