This morning I posted that Government officials were meeting with fast food reps and other health officials to discuss trans fats.

It appears that the fast food industry has agreed to try and reduce the use of trans fats and look for alternatives. They have been asked to do meet again in September to formulate a plan. The Government is not imposing bans at this stage opting instead to go for voluntary participation. Basically, self regulated. It should be interesting to see how this goes.

I suspect that the fast food chains will come to the party on this issue as it’s in their best interest to be seen to do something pro-active.
