I agree totally. Our great grandfathers worked long hard hours. The women didn't have machines doing all the work, and the children had chores early to morning and late in the evening. It was a different life indeed. I agree.

Our bodies just don't need all that concentrated energy any longer. I believe it’s related to our more sedentary life-style today. Our bodies just don’t need all that concentrated energy any longer.

My great grandfathers lived to old ages. Why? My mom tells me they ate what they wanted and all of what they wanted. Her description of the lard in the food and the amount of frying they did back then makes even me queasy. So what's different now?

Either they have whole-heartedly bought into the deal or their product line will benefit through a possible elimination of, or detriment to, their competition. Yes, trans-fats are bad, and maybe people wouldn't stop eating them if they weren't made illegal, but I agree with you that the issue was dealt with in the wrong way (we could have made so many basic hygiene changes this way. We could have arrested people for not brushing their teeth I suppose). Oh yes, what a brave new world we live in. Of course some bakeries are excited about this move.
