More and more Americans are turning to low-carb diets and in response low-carb stores are popping up all over the country. There are already 200 low-carb specialty shops in the nation, and the number is growing.
Although low-carb shops are still largely a niche market, mainstream supermarkets such as Safeway are also expanding low-carb products and major food manufacturers like Russell Stover have plans to release low-carb foods in the near future.
Despite some claims by mainstream medical experts that a low-carb diet may be unhealthy, the population's demand for low-carb products continues to grow.
