It's so funny about people and low carb. The no-fat dogma has been drilled into our heads for so long, even those of us who know the low-carb way is the best way STILL sometimes fall into the trap of thinking we should cut the fat and up the carbs. I whole-heartedly believe that I don't need to eat more than a modicum of carbs (veggies/fruits), and yet sometimes I'm hesitant to say this out loud.
Strange.

Do you remember that lady, what was her name? Is it Susan Powter? She was pretty popular 10-15 years ago I think. She would keep going on "eating fat makes you fat". She would tell people they could eat 50 potatoes or 1 slice of cheese. I wonder how she really kept thin; she certainly wasn't eating lots of potatoes! 
Anyway, I think that having heard this low-fat mantra garbage from many sources over many years has it's desired effect on us all to one degree or another.
