I was reading another article on the pastries they serve at Starbucks, and just an FYI, they are LOADED with Trans Fats. Apparently Starbucks didn't have to change their cooking habits like the fast food chains have. So next time you go to Starbucks and get a piece of Coffee Cake or Cinnamin roll remember they are LOADED with Transfats!
You would be better off going to Krispee Kreme and buying a few donuts because Krispee Kreme donuts have Zero Trans fats!

Comcast.net is a liberal rag. I do not trust it.

Get Direct TV man. I'll split the $50 with you, and it's a way better deal.

Isn't NYC the only major city thus far that has outlawed trans fats in cooking methods? SO until a federal ban has taken place bring on those artery hardening trans fats!

To be fair, Starbucks has numerous low fat choices in their pastry case, clearly labeled as such (e.g. low fat coffee cake, several varieties). But for whatever reason, those always seem to be the ones they have excess off. Why do you suppose that is? (I've had the low fat pastries and they are pretty good.) Could it be that Starbucks is selling people the stuff they want to buy, instead of the "low fat" options?

There is Zero trans fats in a Quarter Pounder with Cheese meal at Mcdonalds.
Just had one for dinner tonight. My god did it taste good!

That's the problem with the salads McDonald's sells. If you look at the fat content, you may as well have the quarter pounder.
