FDA eyes ban on trans fats due to heart disease risk Trans fats may be on their way out of U.S. foods. I find it interesting that trans fats were originally supposed to be the safe alternative to animal fat. I remember the big PR campaign when McDonalds stopped cooking their fries in lard and went to TF. I am still a butter and olive oil guy. I like olive oil, though I have yet to figure out the difference between olive oil and superduper extra pure virgin olive oil. Unlike common vegetable oil, olive oil is more like wine in terms of taste and grading. Where the olives are grown, soil conditions, weather during the growing season, etc., all affect the "quality" of the oil when the olives are harvested and the oil is produced. "Extra Virgin", "Virgin" and ungraded olive oils differ in terms of their acidity, with premium, extra virgin oils having the lowest acidic levels. |
