By passing a law that made it illegal for any food to contain more than two percent of transfat.
Now three years later, hardly anyone notices the difference. The french fries are still crispy. The pastries are still scrumptious. And the fried chicken is still tasty.
The Danish health ministry reports only real difference seems to be that cardiovascular disease has dropped by 20 percent.
Wouldn't this be something worth considering everywhere?

Ban it, ban it, ban it.
You have to read the whole report though.
However they have noticed that reducing transfats also reduces obesity and anything that reduces obesity in my opinion can only be a good thing.
Ban it.

Did you read the whole article? It seems that cardiovascular disease has dropped sharply where ever smoking has been banned from public places. So the trans fat ban is probably not the only reason for the drop.
I get fearful about the whole government control thing!
Besides my husband does cardiovascular surgery are you trying to rob him of his living? (Just joking)

No it is not worth considering. Anyone who lives off of fried chicken and fries is a moron anyway.
