Every time I see one of these terrible verdicts I simply can’t imagine how a jury could get it so wrong. Then I read this thread and see where our country is headed. What a mess.

I agree… but I hardly think that they have the right to tell you what you can and cant do to your own body and/or eat. If I want to get fat as hell and die of a heart attack, thats my right to do so lol

Which would be fine if being fat didn’t mean more doctors visits, more medications, more hospital time, longer recovery, etc. which all have an impact on the insurance company. Bha. I don’t want to start a pissing match, but the decision doesn’t just impact somebody’s health. It hits us all in the wallets.
Look at GM. ☹

goober: so are fully hydrogenated trans fats any better than partially? i’ve always wondered that… only seen a couple labels that say that. and do you have any more info on splenda?

Maybe not everybody understands the details, but any idiot can tell you that eating a lot of greasy chicken is not good for you. Can’t anybody take responsibility for their own health and well being anymore?

> Why stop there? Is it OK to sue McDonalds for making you fat? Or suing Hershey for rotting your teeth? How about suing Subaru for making a fast car that got you a speeding ticket or an accident and injury? People need to be responsible for themselves, and stop suing to try and profit from their own bad decisions. :tdown:

Fully hydrogenated just means that they let the reaction go to completion. Partially means that some are fully hydrogenated and most still have some sort of unsaturation (a few double bonds in this case). Adding hydrogen can break the pi (double bond) and add in hydrogen on those respective carbons. In certain cases the pi bond will shift if there’s any possibility for it to be more stable (the problem is that sometimes it can be TOO stable and very difficult to break).
Partially hydrogenated is better than fully hydrogenated. They’re both not great for the body, though. saturated/trans/hydrogenated fats have higher melting/boiling points. It just takes a whole lot more energy to derive the energy from them. And with partially you really don’t know what you have since it’s a mixture of…stuff. Better living through chemistry! HA!
Think of one as allowing the fire to burn a piece of paper until it’s turned into ash and one as throwing water on the fire as it’s burning–you get some ash, some paper/ash, and some paper.
