If people recall, Krispy Kreme tried like 15-ish years ago to offer a "low carb donut" as that diet (and others) were cutting into their sales substantially.
I can tell you guys as someone who has been eating this way for a very long time, that owns a gym and has previously owned others and that talks to people almost daily about diet, nutrition and meal planning, that low carb/high fat eating is spreading like wildfire right now... far faster than when it was "the atkins diet".
More and more mainstream supermarkets are carrying things like cauliflower rice, carbmaster milk, zero carb yoghurt and so on and so on. There is a quiet revolution happening right now with diet that is far bigger than what we've usually seen and FINALLY, people are getting that you have to cut sugars and grains.
Places like subway(bread) or starbucks (sells cups of sugar) I think are going to suffer more and more. Of course you can sell low carb items or coffee doesn't need to be a cup of syrup... but that represents a massive % of sales and these are the very things that make food addictive to begin with.
On a personal note, its fucking phenomenal that people are waking up to the fact that we are not supposed to be eating sugars and grains and that most modern health maladies began with agriculture 10k years ago and the introduction of grains as a staple in a diet of hunters and gatherers/meat eaters.. the consumption of sugar+grains and were greatly accelerated in Western nations with dietary guidelines which tell you to eat the exact opposite of how your body is designed to eat and where calorie dense fat and proteins were replaced with empty carbs.
In fact... how do you fatten a cow (or any mammal)? Low fat, low protein, sugars and grains.
The problem with rising heart disease (someone over 40 remembers that THIS was the big health crisis in the 70s and 80s and cancer was something you only read about. Heart disease correlated to sugar consumption. The result was being told to eat less fat - as a result, everything became "fat free" and "double sugar". In fact,almost all processed foods have obscene amounts of added fructose and other forms of sugar.
Todays health crisis across the globe can be attributed to one single man and a single fraudulent study where he sought to prove that fat causes heart disease and did a study on 22 countries... then cherry picked the 7 that showed a correlation between high fat diets and heart disease..... Ansel Keys. His fraud is responsible for 10s of millions of dead, many Cancers, Alzheimers (also called Type 3 Diabetes), behavior problems, ADHD, learning disabilities, children being born with Type 2 Diabetes etc etc etc as well as the trillions of dollars in health care costs worlldwide which resulted.
Oh... and fun note. The dietary guidelines published in 77 under Senator McGoverns committee were written by a labor reporter who was a vegetarian as well.... and which was then later heavily altered by food lobbies. That's how idiotic governments are.
