I've seen two other threads regarding this move to eliminate choice by nannie-staters and it should not be allowed to happen.

It's a big deal because of what they may do next.

Before the Volstead Act could be passed, the 18th Amendment had to be ratified, so that the government would have the power to ban alcohol.

When did the amendment pass giving the government the power to ban trans-fats?

Also, when did the amendments pass that gave the power to the federal government to ban drugs, impose CAFE standards, mandate the purchase of insurance policies, pay for abortions, prohibit the states from banning abortion...

Wow. I must have slept through dozens of Constitutional amendments!

If the makers of trans fats greased enough palms in Washington trans fats would suddenly be discovered to be a health food.

What a load of B.S.
We humans can eat almost any amount of food we want as long as we work it off. Read that as EXERCISE.

Conservatives get accused of trying to control women’s uterus. Liberals want to control EVERYTHING else.

IF the purpose is concern for the health of others, then regulate homosexuality for the same reasons.

Odd that the left considers killing an unborn baby a legitimate choice, but eating something with trans-fats is not.

My grandparents used a huge glob of Crisco in EVERYTHING (up until it was reformulated in 2007, Crisco was essentially pure trans-fat) and they managed to live to 86 and 97 and neither died of a heart attack..

They extend shelf life. If you want your populace hungry, weak and compliant, you certainly don’t want anything on the shelves that might extend human life.

The real objective of this is to instigate a food shortage. That's why so many Americans are on food stamps and the government can shut that off with a flick of it's finger.

Trans fats are nasty things. I will not eat them, nor will I feed them to my kids. That stated, anything you want to eat is your business.
