Where in Dr Atkin's book does he recommend these things?

In his book he actually says "stay away from processed foods". I can't think of anything more processed than those low carb bars.

Why does he sell and promote these? Money. Guy has to make a living somehow doesn't he? *shrugs* Just another marketing scheme.

The FDA is forcing companies to start changing their misleading labels. The low carb bars actually contain around 15 to 24 carbs per bar depending on the flavor.....NOT 90.

All of us are different...and the "taste" of something sweet regardless if it is real or false triggers our bodies to release insulin. Insulin in the blood streams prevents us from burning fat, thus causing a stall. If they don't bother you great, however the rest of us stay clear of them.
