A state that probably accounts for almost half of the accumulative Botox injections for the country just in it's southern 1/2 has banned using trans fats. Something injected or something ingested what's the difference?

MSG is a naturally occurring substance in many foods. If you eat beats you are eating a lot of it  |

Whether the substance is naturally occurring or not the government has no right to tell us how to eat and should not tell us what to cook with (within reason). |

I think it's great. One step towards better health statewide. There are other health issues that could be dealt with by laws, but I say this is a step in the right direction. Of course, food service isn't my occupation.

I guess you don't believe in free will and love oppression.
Granted I know the harms of trans fats, how their made and how they are used my mass producers, but it still stands that the government should not be regulating this. Fix welfare, fix SS, fix our economy. Stay the eff out of my food. |

But I see it differently regarding restaurants, where customers won't necessarily know what they're eating.

Label it on your menu if you are using it or not, but just banning of things IMHO is government overstepping it's reach. |
