URGE ALL TRANS FATS BE LABELED ON NUTRITION LABELS!!!

  • al: ryk diemert
  • destinatario: Congress & FDA: Require trans fats be revealed on food nutrition labels, no matter the item's trans fat % content!

As of now, a manufacturer can list '0%' trans fat per serving if the % is less than .5%. This is dangerous. Trans fats are harmful and they don't go away. They reside in the body, accumulating, like radiation doses. .49% is absolutely NOT '0'.

Also, packaging often says '0% trans fat per serving'. This is misleading, as the serving size can be made to create just that goal. I seldom see: 'Contains NO trans fat'.

Demand Congress &/or the FDA make ALL trans fats be revealed on nutrition labels...even to traces of .001% - all those %s add up and accumulate.

[NOTE: If this necessary labeling is enforced, be prepared to see labels like: 'Serving size: approx. 1 chip, Servings per container: approx. 225'.]
