The process of hydrogenation creates most of the trans fat in a typical diet, although meat and dairy products naturally contain small amounts of trans fat. Other sources of trans fat include most stick margarines, vegetable shortening, fried foods and salad dressings. In general, if partially hydrogenated vegetable oil is among the ingredients listed on a nutrition label, you can assume that the food contains trans fat. Trans fat: What's all the fuss? |
