This is expected from an organization whose primary role is to support the agriculture business in the US.

From their perspective, there is no PROOF that low carb is healthy, so since it is bad for their agriculture industry, they assume it is bad for you. Guilty until proven innocent.

The best part is that increasing evidence shows that high carbs are bad for you and cause weight problems, diabetes, etc. Do they treat that low fat, high carb recommendation with suspicion? Of course not.

Remember, it took hundreds of years before people stopped burning scientists at the stake for suggesting the world was round and went around the sun. I am not convinced we are any more open minded today, at least when there is money involved. Remember how long it took for the government to admit that maybe, just mayby, tobacco was bad for you? Given the huge industry and tax base revolving around tobacco, did you expect anything different.....
