Why stop at restaurants?

Grocery stores, you are next. Your aisles are filled with trans-fat items, not to mention high saturated fat items like bacon, sausage, and hamburger. You must be stopped.

There is an army of worthless bureaucrats that need to justify their existence at your expense. You are next.

Actually, since the government research determined there is ZERO healthy level for trans fat, and the FDA required labels to show trans fat content, most stuff in your grocery store have already or are well on their way to removing transfat from their products.

Go check out the nutrition labels for yourself. Most products have already removed trans fat from their products, because it frankly isn't neccessary, it was cheap (and as we have learned very unhealthy) replacement for the fats your parents and grandparents and great grandparents etc etc etc lived on.

I think you will honestly see hydrogenated oils eventually banned across the board, they are unneccessary and as we have unfortunately learned ghastly unhealthy.

Saturated fat is a whole other issue.. but Trans Fat, particularly the artificially created kind, is a horrible blight on health.. and frankly had the FDA known the long term effects of it back when it was introduced it likely would have never approved it for human consumption.

BEWARE, the GREASE POLICE are on point. Wonder if they'll wear those SWAT looking uniforms, and drive around in unmarked Crown Vics and black vans. As you mention,, just a bunch of libs putting more "boots on the ground".

And then the food nazis will demand all households be subject to random inspections of their fridges and cupboards. And eventually CPS will take your kids if you caught with any politically-incorrect foods.

Welcome to New America, where freedom is the freedom to say two plus two equals five.
