Summer is here! And for many of us, especially those of us who live in rural-ish areas, that means a trip to the county fair.

I have, over the years, resolutely kept my political views out of my writing about carb-controlled nutrition. Not that I don't have such views, you understand. I'm just as opinionated in that part of my life as I am about food. I just had this mental image of someone with severe metabolic syndrome reading my work, finding some political view he or she disagreed with, and saying, "I'm not going to listen to anything that nutcase says!" After which, of course, they'd get their feet amputated and go blind from diabetic complications, and it would all be my fault. Or at least partly my fault.

Folks often complain that while their low carb diet has led to weight loss and improved health, their budget is taking a beating. It's true that meat and vegetables are more expensive than pasta and rice.

What do you serve a low carber who doesn't really want to be one? Well, you start with his favorite foods – at least the favorites that are low carb.

You can serve Pineapple Barbecued Salmon Fillets to non-low carbers without fear.
