Is the FDA justified in banning Trans Fats?

Mcdonalds hasn't used trans fat for 5 years...

Eh, they sort of do.

Vegetable oil and Canola oil actually have unlisted transfats.

Yeah, I know about that. I just didn't want to elaborate. But that article elaborates well.

Still though, It would be interesting to see results on the new oil vs the old oil. I don't think most people would claim that french fries are ever the most healthy thing to eat.

Regardless, I don't like government regulating these things, information is out there on trans fats. You can choose or not to choose to eat it. Just like you can choose or not to drink or smoke. Reality is always more complicated than what I'm saying ofcourse.

It's not just French fries.  It's cooking with any vegetable or canola oil.  Which, i mean shit, you use oil of some kind to cook pretty much everything.  (Or at least I do... i tend to go Olive though.)
