Part of what I quoted and cited was the FDA implementation of the laws
relating to nutritional labeling of transfats. That's their job. If
something goes to court, the lawyers for both sides will be quoting the
regs published by the FDA, as well as the original law.

For the rest, yes I trust the FDA more than the food industry or the
wackos who are fighting the food industry. I feel that the FDA should
be charting the middle path.

And no, I'm not betting my bottom dollar.
