Oreo's vs. Newman-O's
Oreos are the top selling cookies in the United States. Few people would worry too much about their saturated fat - only 1-1/2 grams per three-cookie serving, according to the label. That is no worse than Newman-O's, a look-a-like organic sandwich cookie made with palm oil. (Palm oil is naturally saturated, so Paul can turn it into a "creme" filling without hydrogenation).
But the Newman-O's label says "No trans-fatty acids", while the Oreo label doesn't mention that each serving has two grams of hidden trans fat. That makes them twice as bad for you as Newman-O's.
