Burger King announced last Friday it will use trans-fat-free cooking oil at all of its U.S. restaurants by the end of 2008. The move will bring Burger King in line with other leading fast-food restaurants.

Burger King, which is the world's second-largest hamburger chain, noted that hundreds of its 7,100 U.S. restaurants already use zero trans-fat oil. Sounds like the remaining work centers around logistics and operations, instead of the bigger task of adapting the menu to the new oil.

PLUS: Have you listened to the Quick Serve Kids podcast on trans fats? Quick! Do it now!
