When trans fat present in a food does not exceed 0.5 grams per serving, the food manufacturer can legally say "trans fat: zero". The key is the serving size, which is defined by the manufacturer. When the serving size is small enough, any food can have "zero trans fat." We are happy to see that many big restaurants such as McDonald's and Pizza Hat stop using partially hydrogenated vegetable oils (trans fat). Harvard researchers have found up to 100,000 deaths from heart disease in the united States have something to do with trans fat. http://www.foodconsumer.org/newsite/Shopping/Alerts/spartan_stores_0208120803.html 2012-02-08T21:01:00-05:00 2012-02-08T21:01:00-05:00 admin Recall -- Firm Press Release FDA posts press releases and other notices of recalls and market withdrawals from the firms involved as a service to consumers, http://www.foodconsumer.org/newsite/Shopping/Alerts/chicken_salad_sandwiches_0208120801.html 2012-02-08T21:00:00-05:00 2012-02-08T21:00:00-05:00 admin Recall -- Firm Press Release FDA posts press releases and other notices of recalls and market withdrawals from the firms involved as a service to consumers, http://www.foodconsumer.org/newsite/Nutrition/Food/cocoa_colon_cancer_0208120712.html 2012-02-08T20:06:00-05:00 2012-02-08T20:06:00-05:00 admin By Maria Cendejas Researchers in Spain from the Science and Technology Institute of Food and Nutrition published the study in the journal Molecular Nutrition & Food http://www.foodconsumer.org/newsite/Nutrition/Diet/plant-based_diets_0208120640.html 2012-02-08T19:28:00-05:00 2012-02-08T19:28:00-05:00 admin By Janice Stanger, Ph.D. Plant-based eating choices are becoming increasingly popular and mainstream.
