Chicen Fajitas...YUMMMMMM Thanks!

I stopped at the little grocery store down the street from my house to pick up something for lunch today. Since I was in a hurry, I stopped at the deli section to see if they had anything already prepared that was lo-carb. The only possibility was chicken drumettes which didn't look breaded. When I asked if they were lo-carb, the girl checked and sure enough they had a light breading on them.


We started talking about lo-carb plans and the number of people on them. She told me they've lost about 50 regular customers already and the manager was talking about cutting the deli staff. I suggested they offer a couple of lo-carb entrés along with the regular fare. She's going to talk to the manager about doing just that!

She also told me the store manager has already started stocking Atkin's products and will be adding more lo-carb choices soon.

People are starting to realize there's a dietary revolution going on and they want to be a part of it!!!
