Low-carbers are ruining it for the bakeries. Oh, boo-hoo. This concept
applies to everything. Remember the Tickle Me Elmo craze. Remember the
Cabbage Patch craze. Remember this craze. Remember that craze. What
happened when all these crazes blew over. Do you whine about your
failures or do you persevere and make something better.

The way I see it, bakeries have two options. If they want to stay on
the black side of the profit margin, that is. They can embrace the
trends and try to cater to their customers. Whether they think it's
right or not. Or they can buck the trend hoping it will pass over and
hopefully stay above water. Either way, you shouldn't whine about
other people creating your problems. You choose your own destiny.

Of course you should take anything that is written in the Star Tribune
with a grain of salt, IMO.
