Another day, another data breach. This time hackers targeted Whole Foods Market.

The grocery chain says hackers got access to credit card information for customers who made purchases at some of its in-store taprooms and restaurants.

An important note - the breach did not impact anyone who bought groceries at a Whole Foods store. The company uses a different computer system for those transactions. The breach also doesn't impact any Amazon.com orders. Amazon recently acquired Whole Foods Markets.
