I don't think it's right they do that. I love how the AHA even agrees it's wrong lol. It's an infringment on our rights as far as I'm concerned. I have the right to eat whatever I want. If I chose to eat a fat filled meal at McDonalds, that's my right. It's my responsibility to eat right, not the government. Next they'll be dictating how you can wipe your butt after you potty!! Nope-only 3 sheets of toilet paper for you. It's ridiculous. I see lawsuits going to the supreme court over this one.

i live in NY, although not the city which is where it is-its just a city thing. Its a good thing-it doesnt change the TASTE of the food. Its a poison that never leaves your body. Trans fat isnt like regular fat in foods-its in your forever. If it doesnt change the taste why would you WANT to eat that. It's not like theyre saying don't eat fast food and junk food(which would be wrong), theyre just taking out a terrible componant in it to proctect the health of their citizens.
