Trans fat free is anything but free

So now that the trans fat labeling on foods is in effect what does it really mean? Trans fat free doesn't actually mean that there are no trans fats in the food- it means that there is less than a half a gram of trans fat in a serving. Eat three servings of trans fat free foods and you may consume as much as 1.5 grams of trans fat. And as we all know there are no safe levels of trans fat. So what to do? As always read the label, look out for ingredients such as partially hydrogenated oils and vegetable shortening avoid margarine and hydrogenated anything.
