Not understocked...just not very low-carb friendly. I can't understand it...I constantly hear about locals doing Atkins...but, I've never met one in person or seen a shopping cart (other than my own) without bread or some other HC food in it.
I swear...they must have 50 brands and varieties of sugar, but they don't carry even a single brand of Coconut Oil. One or two brands of Butter, but every conceivable Brand and Variety of Margarine. Atkins...maybe 3 or 4 products (Mostly Shakes and Bars) hidden in the Pharamacy section. Weight Watchers and Slim Fast...the whole shebang right out there with all the other foods.
At one store they have two shelves marked "Restricted Fat"...But, not one marked "Restricted Carb." I swear, if there are all these folks doing Atkins around here...they must be hiding. At the bookstore, I see his books flying off the shelves...but, I haven't seen anyone practicing Low-Carb.
