I think that Dr. Atkins is gone and the company is thinking more of its market share than almost anything else.

I think it is trying to combat the worst of the "nutritionists" objections to the 'eat all you want' concept - which was NEVER true. How may people can or even tried to eat a pound of bacon at a sitting or a huge steak? And don't you eat more veggies and salad now than ever?

It may be positioning itself to introduce even more new products. I wish that there would be more emphasis on eating REAL FOOD and less on finding substitutes for the high carb foods. That might help more in changing our eating patterns than using substitutes that are "lower Carb" but not as good as real food.

Grumble, grumble, grumble. Why doesn't Dr. A. come back and haunt them?
