I’m with you. I only want real food.

I didn’t know they still made that “solid vegetable shortening” anymore. I thought the government had outlawed “trans-fats” by now, or did they have to bring them back — to be “trans-friendly”?

They actually did modify the product to bring it in line with regulations; but it still has a little trans-fat. Apparently you can claim ‘0’ grams if the amount is small enough:
