Low Carb corn? I'm not so sure about GMing food to make it low carb. It's.....unnatural.

That's what bugged the snot out of me while doing Atkins. All of these Atkins friendly products have sugar replaced with Sugar Alcohol and various checmicals to make it "lower carb" and I didn't really think about it until I fell off the wagon for the second time - hard.

Then I finally went on South Beach for a few months and learned a new way of eating. Good carbs, high fiber, low fat, and lean meats are the way to go. I will admit I do have Fat Free, No Sugar Added Edys on occasion though we just got an Ice Cream Maker from my In-Laws so I'm going to try and make my own. I also have the Carb Counter bread but it's 100% Whole Wheat - good carbs and they don't add any sugar.

I mean, hell - we still don't know how GM foods will effect the human body. We're still in the midst of testing and who knows over a generation or two whether we will have doomed the human race.
