…And Finally

May 21, 2004 | By | 5 Comments

You’re probably as sick of hearing about carbs as I am sick of eating them! But tonight I was in Publix with my digital camera and I began snapping pictures of the low-carb products that seemed to be everywhere. Cereals, drinks, breads, bagels, pills… All stacked in giant displays appealing to the low-carb sensibility. And so now I present a quick cinematic slideshow of my discoveries with the catchy and accessible title: “The Proliferation of Carbophobic Products in America’s Supermarkets.”

Enjoy!

[And I promise, this is the last you'll hear about carbs for a while!]

    I saw sour cream listed as a low carb food in the grocery store.

    Just curious was the crab touted as low carb or was that just a carbalicous sort of brain typo?

    Heather, I’m afraid the latter–though intentional. Just a joke, really. Don’t think it really carried.

    Otherwise I think my movie is fab-u-lous. Seriously. I’ve watched it like five times. It’s my proudest achievement. Plus I love the song.

    Cheers!

    I loved the blending of the Clash with the hyped up Atkins mania (no relation) and Ken Burns effect! Fantastic! I think I’ll go eat a loaf of Wonder Bread in salute to you. Carb-e Diem!
