why. Good Luck Alan

Testing was done by Dept of Agriculture
& consumer services food & residue labs

Sorry for the way my message printed out but the original was nicely spaced. The first number next to each produce followed by the "g" is the claim on the package and the second number followed by a "g" is the results of the testing laboratory.

Just goes to show that we should be eating real food and not fake food. Even Atkins himself in his book says don't buy food that puts money into somebody else's pocket.

Not even if it is his pocket ?

I have heard of the article as well and I was shocked. I don't eat the Atkins Bars etc, but I thought it extremly bad, that you can't even trust the man (or company) behind the book. How can Dr Atkins have his name of LC Bars, if they are not LC ?

There was a well known baby food producer that is no longer able to sell their product in Canada. They were not being truthful about their contents etc.
Maybe every country should have the same policy.

They'd still find a way to sell it over the internet....
