"TORONTO (CBC) - Toronto's board of health is considering how it might phase out trans fats from city restaurants.ADVERTISEMENT

On Monday, city councillors on the board asked Toronto's medical officer of health, Dr. David McKeown, to report by September on how it might be done.

The move comes as New York City restaurant owners get ready for a July 1 ban on oils, shortenings and margarines containing trans fats. Eating establishments in that city will have until July 2008 to eliminate artificial trans fats from all other foods....
n June 2006, a federal task force report recommended legislation to limit trans fats in processed foods. It called for a limit of two per cent of total fat content in spreadable margarine and five per cent in all other foods.

Ten months later, a report by the Heart and Stroke Foundation and Toronto Public Health called for the federal government to act immediately on the task force's recommendations and to eliminate harmful trans fat from Canada's food supply.

In the meantime, McKeown has asked Toronto restaurants to voluntarily limit their use of trans fats.

He said he wants to meet with federal Health Minister Tony Clement to see how the government plans to respond to the task force report before making his own recommendations."



its a good thing I have someone in high places looking out for me
Im obviously completely incapable of doing it myself
Through me the way to the city of woe, Through me the way to everlasting pain, Through me the way among the lost.
Justice moved my maker on high.
Divine power made me, Wisdom supreme, and Primal love.
Before me nothing was but things eternal, and eternal I endure.
Abandon all hope, you who enter here.

Who the fuck cares?

I'd rather not have this shit in my food anyways, it's why I make my own most of the time.

Are you really going to miss trans fats?

Is your food going to taste like cat piss now?

Do you feel that your right to eat trans fats at yuor local Applebeez is being violated?

I don't eat trans either - or vary rarely at best
I could even handle being told not to I just don't like being forced not to (though I would have a different additude if it was more directed towards public spaces, such as schools, ect.)
kind of my same additude towards raising cigarettes to ten dollars a pack in order to force people to stop smoking
Through me the way to the city of woe, Through me the way to everlasting pain, Through me the way among the lost.

I guess I don't really care because it doesn't affect me.

New research on death.

summary if anyone asks.

Also, for those of you that eat transfats, the reason they build up in your arteries is because they are fats that your body has a hard time breaking down, possibly cannot break down very much at all. So it just precipitates into your circulatory system.

Yeah, I'll be glad when they are gone. Its like feeding yourself heavy metals, except in this case its more legal.
One by one, we break the sheep from their Iron Bar Prisons and expand their imaginations, make them think for themselves. In turn, they break more from their prisons. Eventually, critical mass is reached. Our key word: Resolve. Evangelize with compassion and determination. And realize that there will be few in the beginning. We are hand picking our successors. They are the future of Discordianism. Let us guide our future with intelligence.
