6000 calories(!!!) of extra protein (including egg-white omelettes, chicken breasts, and quinoa), with potatoes or rolls for lunch -- that doesn't have anything to do with Atkins. But that doesn't stop the British press from taking a dig at the Atkins diet in the first paragraph. What do you want to bet that they'll be blaming Atkins if the team loses the World Cup?

What is with the British press's determination to tear down the Atkins diet, anyway? Does it have something to do with the mad-cow disease thing?
