If government at the local level can enact laws that tell us what we can and cannot eat, whilst overlooking alcohol and tobacco (heavily taxed), what other rights is it seeking to recover from us, and why are we so willing to give them up?
STAMFORD, Conn. — Stamford’s governing board has approved a ban on trans fats at city restaurants. Trans fats are shortening and hydrogenated vegetable oils linked to "bad cholesterol" by the Food and Drug Administration.
The Board of Representatives has voted 22-12 to ban trans fats as of
July 1 in food service establishments. However, items in the
manufacturers’ packaging, such as cookies or chips, are exempt.
Manufacturers create trans fat by adding hydrogen to oil. This
hydrogenated oil has a longer shelf life and more stable flavor. The city’s health director said inspectors will incorporate the new anti-trans fat rule into their routine inspections.
