Agreed.

The new Crisco states that's it's 'Trans Fat' free because it now contains fully hydrogenated oils rather than the partial variety. I understand that the 'no trans fat' statement is true since no trans fats remain when oils are fully hydrogenated. But, how long before we find out that fully hydrogenated fats are just as bad for us. Maybe we should just stop chemically altering our food and instead go with AndyG's 'better options'.

I feel better now! Stepping off my soap box...!
