Following in the wake of other manufacturers who rid their products of trans fats after the FDA began requiring changes to food labels to divulge information on the substance last year, the Girl Scouts are announcing that their entire line of cookies is trans fat free. Well, almost. FDA regulations state that labels can carry the words "zero trans fats" if they have a trace or more than a trace of the artery-clogging nasty stuff. Girl Scouts cookies will carry up to half a gram of it per serving, which adds up quickly when you've consumed an entire row of Thin Mints in one sitting.
This is good to hear, most cookies shouldn't have trans fat in them anyway.
