The most interesting parts of the article to me are:

1) All the businesses mentioned are here in my corner of the D/FW Metroplex, and

2) Morrison Milling's Chief Executive is named Harry Crumpacker.

We can create multimegaton nuclear blasts, put a R/C car on Mars and reshape women's breasts, why can't we produce a zero carb chocolate chip cookie?

what i find interesting is we only get one chance on this earth and so many people are turning into boring compulsives...in other words, they've got to loosen up and please stop the prosletyzing. the key to losing weight is getting off your butt and eating less. it actually works.

They might ask for a half-pound of ribs or turkey, or a full pound of sliced beef, but it's always just meat and water, meat and water, 30 or so customers a day.

And yet, these people aren't doing Atkins (at least not correctly) because standard barbeque sauce has tons of sugar and is not really appropriate for any phase of the diet.

"White bread, that time-tested favorite of the American table, is out."

Time tested? Not as much time as you might think. Sliced white bread is a relatively novel idea.

1928 Inventor Otto Frederick Rohwedder perfects the commercial bread slicer after 15 years of work, and it is used for the first time in a commercial bakery at Chillicothe, Mo. Consumers are suspicious at first.

1930 Sliced bread makes a broader debut under a national brand. Sliced bread (and the introduction of the automatic toaster) has increased consumption of toast at breakfast.
