[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 34177, member: 13"] I've heard that, too, about the potato industry. And the bread people are also being hit. Krispy Kreem donuts will be out with a lo carb donut pretty soon. Coke is coming out with a version of regular Coke that's lower in carbs and Hershey has a low carb candy bar. I was at a family reunion last weekend and was surprised at how many people had been or were on the Atkins Diet. And they all had lost weight on it. The University of FL has been working with some farmers to produce a new potato that will grow well in FL. They imported one from Holland (I think) and it's doing well. They've also discovered it has 30% fewer carbs than the Russett potatoes we usually see in the supermarket. They're planning to send them to market next year as a branded product, like Vidalia Onions. [/QUOTE]
