New York bans trans fats
Article in the Telegraph
Extract:
"The ban, which comes into force on Tuesday, extends to almost all prepared food in restaurants, bakeries, cafeterias and even hot dog and pretzel stands.
Caterers will be given a three month grace period to comply before facing a $2,000 (£1,000) fine.
Trans fats are a type of unsaturated fat which is partially hydrogenated to give it a higher melting point, extending its shelf life and making it useful for baking."
