No one can deny the impact low-carb dieting has had on the American food marketplace, and on the surface high-carb foods are suffering. This new Packaged Facts reports examines the market for low carb foods and beverages, more than a year into the height of the craze. Recent surveys suggest that people are finding it hard to maintain low-carb diets, while others maintain that low carb is a lifestyle, not a diet. Indeed, just how long will the low-carb revolution last? This report asks whether low-carb has dealt an irreparable blow to pasta, bread and other high-carb foods, or whether these staples of the American diet can revive and thrive in an Atkins-colored world.
