Helpful Fact for the Day
How many people know that trans fat is bad? I would say a good majority, especially people who are on this forum. How many people know food companies can label their packaged food 0% trans fat and still have trans fat in them? I'd say less people know this.
If the amount of trans fat, Per Serving, is below .5 grams these companies can claim 0%. This is a buyers beware. If you really want to know what's in your food, skip the percentage and look at the ingredients. If there are partially hydrogenated oils or fully hydrogenated oils in the list stay away from that food it has trans fat.
Hope this can be of some help!
