The price of wheat is up 25%. Rice is up 30%. And it was announced today that the production of corn grain in the US will fall by 8% this year.
So, bread, pizza, pasta and rice dishes are set to become pricier and limited corn supply will put the squeeze on all kinds of foods including tomato ketchup and sweetened fizzy drinks.
We're headed for a global diet - like the carb free regime that made a fortune for Dr Robert Atkins.
But it gets worse. Corn and soy are also used to feed dairy cows and egg-laying hens, as well as to fatten chickens and cattle.
It might not even be possible to eat the high-fat, high-protein diet Dr Atkins championed. Although, he was obese and sickly when he died so that might be a blessing.
Still, if the global financial recession means belt tightening all round, we might need to make an extra hole in our belts to match our soon-to-be-shrinking waistlines...

An outstanding share! I have just forwarded this onto a colleague who was conducting a little
homework on this. And he in fact ordered me lunch due to the
fact that I stumbled upon it for him... lol. So allow me
to reword this.... Thank YOU for the meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending the time to discuss
this matter here on your site.

I create a comment whenever I like a article on a site or if
I have something to contribute to the discussion.
It's a result of the passion displayed in the article I read. And on this post "6 billion people to start Atkins Diet". I was actually moved enough to drop a thought :-P I actually do have a few questions for you if it's okay.
Could it be only me or do a few of the responses come across like coming from
brain dead individuals? :-P And, if you are posting at other online sites,
I'd like to follow everything new you have to post. Could you list the complete urls of your communal sites like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?
