An Open Letter To Carbs From Fat America

Dear Carbohydrates:
We here in Obese America (a.k.a. All of America) owe you a deep and heart felt apology. For over 2 years now we have blamed you for everything that is wrong in our lives and now that we have gained back all of the weight from our "Atkins Diet" and have tripled our risk of heart disease in the process we have come to realize that it was rash to cut you out of our lives all together. In hindsight we have come to realize that a diet that consisted of all bacon and sausage was not exactly "balanced" but how were we to know? Also, sorry for calling you Carbs all the time, we know your name is Carbohydrate and we apologize for getting so familiar. In addition we realize now that is was pretty retarded to call things completely devoid of all carbohydrates "carb friendly". Now that we look at things from your perspective pushing you out of our diets and slandering your name to all that would listen could be construed as downright "unfriendly". Lastly, our bad for blaming you for SARS, foot and mouth, adult onset diabetes and the Madrid train bombings. We were way out of line.

Sorry,

Obese America
