Tradition? What's traditional is low-carb and predominantly fat and protein. There was already research supporting it. Thirty years of junk-science low-fat propaganda is not long enough to count as traditional.

Why is animal fat not "the highest possible caliber"? Their own research does not indict animal fat. In fact, it goes in the other direction.
