At least for now.Exactly. The public and corporate America will come to a compromise. The manufactures will start producing stuff with less crap in it (paricularly that high-fructose corn syrup), let us sweeten and salt our own foods, realize that foods should be less processed, and we'll eat their products again.

The solution really isn't rocket science for them.

The problem is, they will need to re-tool and businesses hate to do that if they don't have to.

Rule # 1 in business survival....don't blame the customer....just give 'em what they want. Carbs are going the way of the beaver hat, the buggy whip, and the 8-track tape.

Can you tell me what is the reason for the more and more frequent nasty practice of ruining yogurt, ice cream, etc with agar/xanthan gum additives? I guess the purpose is more profits and more Krohn disease.

this was not exactly unpredicted. Why don't these companies figure out how to make their products low-carb?
Certainly Arnold and others are now making low-carb bread;
Atkins markets low-carb pasta etc as do other companies.
This bankrupcy is the result of 'head in the sand' syndrome.
