Since I've already posted here before the standard, "You're posting in the correct area you stupid troll" greeting won't be necessary.

After reading a few posts it's quite interesting- from an anthropological view. The banners on a lot of users entries include "PETA" (spoofed). You can even win a "Meat not Wheat" mug. I suppose it finally 'proves' that I really am a Grade A moron. Not only is meat tasty it's been 'proven' to be the best diet imaginable. The mere thought that one would question Dr.Atkins to any degree is almost unthinkable. Why are studies even being conducted anymore? It's silly. We all know what they all will point to. I propose that Dr.Atkins be awarded posthumously the entire gamut of Nobel prizes for his commitment to the health of humanity.

Okay, well now that I've stopped acting like 50% of the members here, I'll continue. It is not surprising that this diet has become rather popular seeing as the animal rights movement has as well. It makes you sit back and realize the interconnectedness of so many trends.
