A CAMPAIGN FOR HEALTHY FATS

All of us pay a price for the widespread use of
trans
fatty acids—margarine, shortening and hydrogenated oils—in the food supply, even if we ourselves avoid processed and fast foods, because all of us collectively pay for the plague of cancer, heart disease and other chronic illness that the use of
trans
fatty acids has engendered. We pay with our pocketbooks in the form of increased health costs and lower productivity, and we pay with the lives of our loved ones. Informed consumers may not eat potato chips, cookies, crackers, prepared foods and french fries, but their children and grandchildren probably do. The tragedy is that hydrogenated fats are unnecessary—food processors have many alternatives for fried foods, baked goods, cookies and other processed foods. These include the tropical oils—coconut, palm and palm kernel—along with butter and other animal fats. These are safe and healthy alternatives to
trans
fatty acids.

Does it make you angry that food processors and fast food outlets use dangerous hydrogenated fats to save money while promoting them to the gullible consumer as health foods? If so, then join us in a letter-writing and phone-in campaign to the major food processing and fast food companies. No new laws are necessary to rid ourselves of the
trans
fatty acid menace—just the full weight of outraged public opinion.
