On A Pale Horse

Who in the hell hasn't tried Atkins yet? Yes, it helped me drop weight but at what cost? I missed my mash potatoes...and it seems like a lot of other people did as well. Maybe it just hit people in the head that Dr Robert (pictured above) died of heart failure and was considered to be obese by some accounts. Or maybe the American public got tired of trying to believe that a 'Splenda' chocolate cake or those damn nutritional bars were just as yummy as a Dunkin' Donut Boston Cream donut or a handful of M&M's. Everyone jumped on the band-wagon, hell, my local bar even had an Atkins pizza (no crust just the filler), you couldn't go anywhere without in the Carb conscious sucking the life out of food. But these people had to know that the American public only has a 15 minute attention span. Atkins Nutritionals filed for Chapter 11 bankrupcy; face it the craze is over, South Beach we're coming for you next.
