The way I see it, the point of the very article you're replying to is to find a friendlier version of the potato diet that might be more fun or sustainable.

Maybe they'll find that people who replace one of their daily meals with french fries end up losing weight over time. Who knows. I think it's good to be positive.

Oh, totally -- I was interested in their "half-tato" idea, because it seemed more sustainable than the all-potato version. But the results were "underwhelming," in their own words. Ditto their potassium-salt idea.
