At the very least restaurants should be required to disclose whether or not their food has transfat, and I would have no problem if the FDA decided to ban trans-fat completely. Quite simply there are many alternatives to transfat, and if you pay attention to the labels many foods that are certainly diet foods no longer have transfat in them. Look at the label of a bag of potato chips and you will see that most brands do NOT have transfat. It could easily be eliminated from the American diet and consumers would hardly notice.
