I read it this morning and thought "Oh, no, here comes the latest scare tactic - IT'S TOO EXPENSIVE! DON'T DO IT!" C'mon, comparing red snapper and radicchio to mac n' cheese? I know vegetarians who put more time and preparation into their meals, and probably spend as much as I do. At least the articles pointed out that you can substitute cheaper ingredients, but I felt they missed the point - overall, I got the impression that Atkins is more about eating gourmet foods than eliminating starchy ones.
And yes, I probably spend more now than on rock-bottom budget beans and rice, but honestly I never ate that way anyway, even when poor I couldn't resist the prepackaged stuff.
