Daas Yochid,
The govt. recently banned transfat. According to reports you would think they had our best interests in mind….right ? What people didn’t read is that they were sued to prove that it is safe by a certain doctor. And they ignored the suit for five years until they couldn’t push off anymore and they made it as if all of a sudden they discovered that is not safe. Obviously, all the food companies were not too happy about this decision. You cannot trust the govt. for anything except to raise your taxes. They only have their own interests in mind. Google the graphs yourself and you will see the sites that show the graphs falling even before 1940 etc…..
