Trans fats are in so many popular foods that the average American eats about two kilograms of them a year. Hydrogenated oil is used as a shortening in many baked goods, including cookies, crackers, and doughnuts. It is also used in some margarine and is commonly used for deep frying, so it is often found in French fries and fried chicken. The ban on trans fats, then, will likely have a serious effect on the food industry in the U.S. and around the world.
