Sounds like more overreaction to the current food taboo buzzword to me. Wonder what it will be in six months? Eggs are bad for you? Lately seems like grocery stores are worse for you than anything else.

Yeah, since when is "most trans-fat" == "unhealthiest"?

People are getting a little nuts with this. Sure it's no good for you but give it a rest. The hysterical carping about the poisonous ingredient du jour is has reached comic proportions.

Hilarious! The top 33 were all FRIED foods.
What you mean that FRIED foods are not good for me? Really? One serving and I am dead, dead, dead....
And, don't get started that it is just about trans fats... Please. Doesn't everyone know that fried foods are an occasional indulgence? No matter what they are fried in? Moderation. Now off for a glass of wine and some fried pork rinds.

If these foods have at least 5 grams of transfats, then it can really be considered as unhealthy. According to a very recent CNN report, feeding daily on at least 5 grams of transfats enriched food such as french fries increases the risk of heart disease by 5%. Fact is we need to fuel the diet with more Omega 3 nutrients or the unsaturated type of fat than the saturated and transfats for that matter. If you want to sustain your cardiovascular health, we should refrain from taking in excessive transfats in our diet.
