Default The Vegetarian Fad is Over

That's right, after reading all those articles that said that low carb was dead because Atkins Nutritionals went bankrupt, here is proof that eating vegetarian is over.

I find fake meat delicious. Those gardenburgers are great. They make a good appetizer before the steak.

Before my low carb days I used to love gardenburger. Delicious: pop the little baggy of flavorings, herbs, and soy in the microwave, put it in between two slices of sugar, smother with lots of sugary ketchup, couple with a nice tall glass of sugar. YUM

Seriously though I still would eat them if not for the fact I now know they aren't a healthier alternative to meat. I haven't had one in forever but I think they are over 10 carbs per, right? That's just too high when lean beef is ZERO and much more nutritious.

Gee, I guess people who choose not to eat meat are just missing out... um, not. Just because we choose to eat meat is no reason to act like those who don't are morons...

Hey! I like Gardenburgers. I thought I kept them in business single handedly. I guess not.

Yeah, my "fad" vegetarianism has only lasted 10 years. I guess I should just jump ship.

Gardenburger files for bankruptcy

Do I detect some resentment towards all that Atkins filing for bankruptcy hype?

And Paleoanth, don't stress. Malcolm is hitting out at the people that jumped up and down about Atkins' chapter 11 filing, not at lc vegos
