It can also of course be YMMV depending on your regional market and chain affiliate.
Instacart and walmart+ are $100 a year and you can very often find promos for annual memberships (Both also do EBT). Walmart+ does free delivery with no minimum on many products.
BJs, Costco, Sam's Club memberships range from $60-100 annually and you can find them on promo for $20-30 often, they all offer free shipping with certain order amount. Sam's Club Plus memberships get free delivery with no minimum.
Unless you just love the whole foods prices this is absurd compared to the market even at $5 for EBT users, you'll be paying the extra $5 in markups for whole foods products or amazon fresh if your lucky that will be the only options available opposed to the others offering most brands. You are paying more than the competition to get less range of products.
Please choice one of the other options, most offer organic as well if that's a dealbreaker.

If you can afford WF and have more to spend as you claim then there's little need to be on Slickdeals. I was offering suggestion to people that intend on being frugal or getting the most for their dollar while not compromising on quality if organic is a must. Your suggestion is to not be frugal in which case why would you be looking for a deal.

They pitch it to consumers as "pay the subscription fee to make all other fees go away" whereas the pitch to delivery drivers is "we'll pay you part of your costs and you'll make the rest and a profit off of tips."
When I get something shipped I don't need to tip and if you are posting me to order for delivery I shouldn't need to tip either. Since they set the expectations on the driver's side towards tips, I simply don't order for delivery.
If I really need it today I am thankfully capable of going shopping myself. On the rare occasion that I can't get out and need something on short notice then the tip is warranted.
But regardless, treating it like fine dining where a 20% tip is expected, is a bit obnoxious in my mind.
Don't use the service and don't tip.
Use the service and tip. Or don't. Just be aware that the drivers are working on a pay structure that is largely tip based.
That being said, Amazon has in the past stolen tips to augment their portion of pay.

That said what is an actual waste of human life/money/gas is to have people bring 1-3 items (from say one day delivery or doordash/instacart) more than 5 times a week just for the sake of convivence, opposed to once a week, biweekly, or once a month even for non/semi-perishables (like amazon subscribe and save does, this is why they offer 15% on orders greater than 5 items since it saves them significantly to not go to your house 5 separate times for 1 item at a time.)
