Jon, diet discussions are probably O/T for a discussion of KKD and its stock.

I know people who are on the Atkins diet and say they've lost weight. I know others who say Atkins did nothing for them. I don't care whether it works or not. I'm not on it.

As a generality, there are all kinds of diets out there, many of them dangerous. It seems to me that one needs to exercise common sense when it comes to nutritionally lop-sided approaches to losing weight.

Now you're reporting that someone is suing the Atkins estate. Isn't that inevitable?

I don't have much sympathy for those who bring the suit. It's the same type of thing as the ridiculous obesity suits against McDonalds. Someone could sue KKD, too, for contributing to his obesity. As if one doesn't know that eating two dozen donuts a day is going to make one fat if it continues indefinitely. Give us a break from absurd law suits, okay?
