Did I miss something? Why has your wife's need to complicate her diet got anything to do with you? If she refuses now to even look at carbohydrates, then just make your own chips with every meal. You could empty a drawer out and call it Mephisto's Drawer of Fun. Fill it with crisps, choc, bread, rice, pasta, pastry, and make a point of delving in whenever she gets the ryvita out. That way she'll have two or so days of healthy living before she cracks and joins you in a massive steak with pommes dauphinoises -forgetting all these silly ideas with one revelatory bite.
