I have been publicly warning about trans fats (and all processed oils) since 1966, and first called for a ban on hydrogenated fats in 1975. So I strongly agree that all products containing abnormal fatty acids should be removed from the market, not merely labelled as to trans fat content which can lead to further confusion if trans fats are lumped in with natural saturated fats and equated with respect to effects on health. I have a number of articles and copy items which I can send if you feel that they may be useful.
