Earlier this week, The official Whole Foods Instagram account was wiped clean. They started posting WHITE pictures and started following Beyonce, Cardi B and Sting. They also changed their bio to a bee emoji.
Obviously it got people's attention.
A few days later, with only speculations about what's going on, and they're STILL only posting white pictures & are now following a few more people: Mariah Carey, Bon Jovi and Jerry Seinfeld.
Let's looks at what we know:
- Bee emoji 🐝
- Beyonce aka Queen B(EE)
- Cardi B(EE)
- Sting- BEE sting, also a voice in the BEE movie
- Mariah Carey- has a song called HONEY aka the product of BEEs
- Jerry Seinfeld- main voice in the BEE movie
- Bon Jovi- a Judge used Bon Jovi to explain ‘cymotrichous’ in the 2011 spelling BEE final AND he's a BEE keeper.
Notice a theme? obviously.
But what you might not know is that this week June 18th- 24th is National Pollinators Week.
On the Whole Foods website (HERE) it says, "Pollinators are responsible for 1 out of 3 bites of food we humans eat — yet their habitat is shrinking and many species are in danger."
So without BEES, there is no food, hence the white (Blank) pictures.
#SaveTheBees and Happy National Pollinators Week!!!!
Here's the Bon Jovi reference at the 2011 Spelling bee Final. Start at about 3:30
