Trans Fats: Most Likely Bad, but Not Really This Evil, Right?

Yikes! Could eating trans fats lead to infertility?

Children of Men, anyone?

Naw. I think food scientist Marion Nestle makes a good point in that article when she says it's rarely one food, or one class of foods, that causes a problem. Most often, it's the big picture. It will be interesting to watch results from further studies.

In the meantime, it's clear that consumer demands are pushing restaurant companies and food manufacturers to eliminate trans fats from their products, and that's likely for the best.
