Anyone who is seriously trying to lose weight must reduce the amount of carbohydrates in their daily diet. Breads and pastas are the downfall of many people, which are full of carbohydrates; not really bad for you, just bad for your weight loss plan if you consume too many. Low carbohydrate diets such as the South Beach Diet and Atkins Diet advocate restricted carb consumption to boost fat burning mechanisms in the body to accelerate weight loss. Many dieters have been successful using these diet methods, by cutting back on the amount of carbohydrates they consume; they have lost weight and kept it off by continuing to follow a low carb diet. Low carb recipes use more proteins or fats to replace certain carbohydrates, and processed sugar is eliminated, or at the very least is greatly reduced. Vegetables are better than fruits because of the lower carb content, and fruits are better than grains.

In America we eat, collectively, with a glum urge for food to fill us. We are ignorant of flavour. We are as a nation taste-blind.
