They banned the use of trans fats in restaurants in NYC back in June 2008. In order to comply with the law as quickly and as cheaply as possible most just made a wholesale change from the trans fat shortenings to palm oil. So now your "Zero Trans Fat" cookie contains an equally damaging amount of saturated fats from the palm oil.
If you really want to make a difference in your health with respect to the food you eat stop being lazy and make your own food from scratch (not processed foods) and stop eating out.
Don't rely on politicians to make your health decisions for you. Make them yourself and don't try and place blame for your demise on someone else because of the poor diet that you chose to consume.
-- Secure the borders, kill the terrorists and stop making excuses.
