Articles are often posted here, both pro and anti-low carb, so that others can comment on them and posting an anti-low carb article doesn't necessarily mean that the poster is agreeing with it.

OK thanks. I was mistaken on this.

Not to mention he used "flower" instead of "flour" twice in the article. Not a reputable journalist.

Or at the very least, a journalist with a very poor editor!

That was my very first thought when reading this article. I'm all for the clueless yutz award.

There needs to be a complete balance, some protein, some fat, some fruit, some vegetables – yes, the old food groups before they changed the chart.

I think this was my favorite line in the article. This yutz was talking about Atkins and other low carb diets without even realizing it. That happens to be exactly what I eat now!

I could tear the article apart for grammar, punctuation, and spelling, but Terton's editor should have caught that. Apparently the Moderate Independent is an amateur publication/website, so there's really no point in bothering.

Ok, lets all start looking for a nice graphic to represent the Clueless Yutz of the Week.

So far, I haven't found any.
