More attacks on trans fats -- from Philly

The attack on trans fats is far from over, from whole cities to major fast-food companies banning the artery-clogging oils and fats from menus and shelves.

In Pennsylvania, the Philadephia city council committee on Public Health and Human Services took the first step toward barring restaurants, food trucks and takeout eateries from using products that contain trans fats.

With New York City now having banned trans fats from menus come this July, will we see more towns and cities ban the substance from food outlets and restaurants? My guess -- yes we will, but it will be more of a publicity stunt instead of genuinely caring for the health of patrons.
