I think there is an awareness of this coming back and I think we can thank Dr. Atkins. For so many years, people lived on pizza and pasta and we all suffered under the delusion that it was good for us. In the 80's and 90's, it was nothing for people to abstain from meat. For many young people, their dinner wasn't going to include meat anyway.

Enter the glycemic index and the Atkins diet. We all eat more chicken than we did 10 years ago. Anyway, it seems to me that now when adults have to have pizza, in the back of their heads they're thinking, "that's enough carbs for today. No dessert."

Now people hear this information and it sticks with them, and guess what? No meat's a sacrifice again!

Thanks but I give more credit to those catholics who seek to unite themselves to the suffering Savior.
