it was ok nothing to get excited about
11/1/2009 02:55:36 PM Report AbuseTransfat is man made, the amount of butter is negligible and since this isn't something you would eat daily doesn't justify your comment.

Seems strange not to alert people about this artery-clogging fat; the medical information I read says NO amount is good to injest.
