Well, it wasn't long before this happened, but it's still my opinion - people are stupid and/or just looking for a quick buck and someone to blame....but if someone can't see that eating bacon, red meat, chicken wings (which they say is "ok") will clog your arteries, then they don't deserve to win a suit. (Neither did that stupid woman who spilled hot coffee on her lap.)-- and this guy was only 148lbs, up from 140....oooh, yeah, he needed Atkins! :) The suit says that following the Atkins diet for two years raised the man's cholesterol so much that he required surgery to open a clogged artery.
