Seems like one of the villians in the spotlight recently is the trans fat. I can remember ever since late of 2004 I’ve been hearing about trans fat and how it’s believed to be the fat that causes cholesterol problems and heart disease. What makes this fat so evil? Personally I love my fats and oils, I believe every piece of meat is best served with marblized fat and food just plain tastes better with more oil, but that habit has got to change. Well no wonder I love McDonald’s french fries, they have a total fat of 30 grams and 8 grams of it is trans fat! I think McDonald’s strategy of making the nutritional facts of their food items public will be a disaster for them. But I also believe that this will lead to them improving the quality of their foods in the U.S., just like they’ve already done in Australia, Denmark and Israel.
