Good points. I totally agree with your last statement, if you know what you're supposed to do. I believe there will be a certain segment that tries to do banting with only a half-heard, tenth-understood knowledge of what it's really all about and then just replace all the bread they're eating now with LC bread, all the pasta they're eating now with LC pasta, all the sugar they're eating now with Splenda, etc.... For some it might even work a bit, but for most, it won't, and those are the ones who will create a temporary backlash. Until we can really get the message out that it's about fresh, whole foods, this will happen. It also wouldn't hurt if we can replace the ubiquitous image that accompanies almost every story about banting, a pan of frying bacon and eggs, or a steak. At least put some veggies with the steak!!
