Trans Fat Illigal in New York?

NYC health department proposed to bar cooks at any of the city's 24,600 food service places from using ingredients that contain Trans Fat.

Trans Fats are found in some shortenings, margarine and frying oils and turn up in foods from pie crusts to french fries to doughnuts.

"It is a dangerous and unnecessary ingredient," Frieden said. "No one will miss it when it's gone."
