I would like to see the states in the US adopt similar laws. Transfats are very harmful to a person's health. Also, they are totally unnecessary. At home, my Wife and I never eat foods that have transfats. However, when we eat out, we never know what restaurants fry their french fries, fried chicken, etc. I avoid eating KFC and McDonalds friend foods since I know they use cooking oils that contain transfats. Other places, if I don't know, I don't eat foods that may have transfats.
When I was in my teens and twenties, before I became more focused on my health eating habits, I probably did prodigious damage to my circulatory system. Had this law been in force, perhaps that would not be the case.

Just like cigarettes. Should those be banned also?

Uhm...have you tried asking? If I am trying a new dish at a restaurant, I ALWAYS ask "how is this prepared?"
