Caution Trans-Fats

Enjoyed this comment to a blog post on NYC’s attempts to ban trans-fats:

Husband was listening to a talk show program about New York, and also about the dangers of trans fats. He turned it down, and said “so let me get this straight, these trans fats such as shortening and margerine are more dangerous to health than the lard and butter they replaced?” “That’s what they’re saying.” A big smile crossed his face as he declared “There IS a God.”
