Welcome to the "Cut Trans Fat Blog". This blog is for discussions regarding trans fatty acids, often referred to simply as trans fats. There has been a lot in the press recently regarding trans fats found in foods and in the oils used to prepare foods. Should all artificial trans fats be banned from food products? How can you tell if the foods you buy contain trans fats? What are partially hydrogenated oils? Why does a food label often show partially hydrogenated oil in the list of ingredients, yet show that the product contains 0 grams of trans fat?
Hopefully, questions like these will form the basis for good discussions. In addition, the website http://cuttransfat.org is an excellent place to find additional resources and discussions.
Later,
Bill - Webmaster at http://cuttransfat.org
