|
| 7/26/2004 - Kraft has introduced new Low-Carb Oreo cookies that I have now designated "the most ridiculous low-carb product" yet introduced to U.S. consumers. The idea of having Low-Carb Oreo cookies, however, may be appealing to many consumers who are attempting to follow a low-carb diet without actually choosing...
|
| 7/18/2004 - There's a whole lot of bickering going on over the effectiveness and potential dangers of low-carb diets, but the participants in this fight aren't concerned about your health: they're concerned about their profits.

|
| 7/18/2004 - As good as the Atkins Good Guide Pyramid is, I think it's worth noting how it could be improved.

This one mechanism, if followed by everyone,...
|

|
| 5/9/2004 8:50:25 PM - Doctors just love to come up with new disease names for behaviors or
patterns of symptoms. Once you give it a label, it seems, it's suddenly
a "real" affliction (like Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder, which
was really just normal childhood behavior until they gave it the ADHD
name and...
|
| 1/30/2004 10:02:34 AM - The low-carb diet trend is having a huge
impact on fast food restaurants. Customers don't want the bun, the

deliver what customers want. Those restaurants include...
|
| 1/18/2004 9:07:44 AM - It's rare that I have any praise for a fast food chain, but in this

other low-carb diets....
