On food packages the products say total fat, under that is listed saturated, polyunsaturated, monounsaturated and trans fats, but the total doesn't add up. So where's the hidden fat? What type is it? I've asked several places and no one seems to know.

food manufactures are allowed to round down values of nutrients. so if a serving of food contains 2.5 grams of fats the manufacturer is allowed by law to change that to 2 grams of fats per serving.

Try counting again? lol
Sometimes there are fat values under other things, hi fruc corn syrup is slightly fatty. Also, not all of these fats are bad for you. We did it in science, I think unsaturated fats are healthy in moderation.
