It is that guy from “nonprofit Center for Science in the Public Interest”.

Again.

It could have been worse, they could have been hit with a fat trans lawsuit.

Center for Science in the Public Interest = Food Nazies and public busy-bodies. I should sue them for trying to prevent me from eating food with transfats.

Meanwhile, data from the National Center for Health Statistics show that Americans are living longer than ever.

Probably need to bring Burger King up on weapons charges too since they are obviously hoding a gun to customers heads to force them to eat their products.

Gotta love when the obese can’t force themselves to stop trans-fats daily. Then what happens? People get sued.

This lawsuit is garbage, but I’m glad I came upon this article. I had no idea that BK was still using trans-fats. No more fried stuff from there for me.

In 2006, Wendy's became the first big fast-food chain to switch away from trans fat.

Wendy's fries taste like water.

By allowing gay marriage, the state of Massachusetts is knowingly increasing its customers' risk of contracting AIDS and early death

By allowing needle distribuion, the city of New York is knowingly increasing its customers' risk of overdosing on illegal drugs, and early death

Here we go with these lawsuit prospectors. Once they get the restaurant industry under their thumbs, they will then come into our kitchens.

Soon the black market food ingredients market will be as thriving as the crack cocaine market. And we can guess who will be working the black market industry. It will be these same lawsuit prospectors who worked themselves out of easy takings.

Should sue them for their lousy fries.

The old fries were much, much better than the batter-dipped cardboard they fry up now.

I am going to eat lunch at BK the rest of the week just to P.O. the food police. Go ahead, try to stop me!

Anyone know where I can get a “I heart trans fat” bumpersticker?

What gets me is the people that want to legalize all drugs or just mariajuana who say that trans-fats should be outlawed because they’re killing people.

I believe that consuming large quantities of trans-fats, as is mostly only possible when consuming foods made with or cooked in partially hydrogenated vegetable oils, is bad for you. Having said that, that linkage is not 100% proven and partially hydrogenated oils are still a legal product to use in making or preparing foods. I say let the buyer beware. You’d hardly be consuming large quantities of fast food of any kind, anyway, if you have any real concern for your health. Too much processed starch, salt, empty calories, and fat. OK as an occasional indulgence, but not regularly.
