my peanut butter comes with this type of oil it is bad to consume this type of oil on a regular basis? thanks in advanced
You live up here in Canada though right Brian? WE finally closed that legal loophole, and now any all all TFAs are reported on the label. It's why I see 0.1 and 0.2g of TFAs all the time. The USA might still be behind on that one though.Fully Hydrogenated Vegetable does not contain trans fat, but partially-hydrogenated oil does. This is important because manufacturers are allowed to list trans fat as 0 if it has less than .5 grams per serving. Depending on how much you use, this can be very significant.
Depending on your labelling regulations. In Canada, any and all trans-fats are labeled but the US may be different as Brian mentioned; possibly if it's <0.5 then can list it as 0.ok thanks for the help guys.......so if its below .5 grams trans fat they dont tell you?
Yeah, Canada is honest, the US would rather cater to manufacturers than consumersDepending on your labelling regulations. In Canada, any and all trans-fats are labeled but the US may be different as Brian mentioned; possibly if it's <0.5 then can list it as 0.
consumers can choose to buy peanut butter that has no hydrogenated oils in it at allYeah, Canada is honest, the US would rather cater to manufacturers than consumers
I'd trade more relaxed PH/Hormone laws for our Trans-Fats labeling anyday :rippedhand:makes sense...to bad we dont have those kind of regulations here
