Whatever. Transfat is the latest fanatacism for the American people.

Soft margarine has less transfat and in anycase as long as you eat
everything in moderation you will generally be healthy. I get the feeling
that a lot of people are going to have heart attacks over worry about
transfat now even though they never thought about it until now and have
been healthy until now too.
