Ok we all know that Trans Fatty foods are contributing to the obesity rate in America, and in some other countries nation wide. Do you believe that the Trans Fats ban that is hitting some states is a good thing, or do you believe that eating the trans fats is up to the individual buying the products. Thanks for your replies!

The problem with trans fats is not that they contribute to obesity (you could say that about all fats), but that they are more prone to clogging the arteries.
The trans fat ban is OK with me, as long as there are other, less harmful fats that can be used that won't ruin the taste or consistency of the food.
