Three women from Los Angeles just started a company called Carb Couture with the aim to defend their right to enjoy carbs. How silly is this? It is really sad when people feel so threatened by their environment that they have to declare their love of a food and right to eat it. I know, I come from the opposite place. Up until this year, or at most last year, my low carb ways were ridiculed by a majority of people as unhealthy. Now the tables have turned and those who eat lots of carbs are apparently getting the brunt of some people’s ire, at least in LA. I think what this shows mostly is that people shouldn’t be critical of other’s eating habits. Still, while I was being assailed by friends or colleagues as that wacky guy who used to be a vegetarian and is now on that “meat diet,” I didn’t make up T-shirts saying “If God didn’t want us to eat animals, why did he make them out of meat?” No, it was a personal choice, one that I didn’t feel I had to defend to the world (just a few lucky friends and family members 
). Hey, if these women want to talk about how they “love their carbs” more power to them. I love carbs too, they just don’t love me. They tolerate me at best.
