Friendly's is going trans-fat free
Friendly's, famous for it's burgers and ice cream sundaes, is planning on switching its 500 restaurants over to trans-fat free oil by fall. The restaurant chain has been working on eliminating the trans-fat laden oils for over a year. Since New York banned the use of trans-fatty acids in restaurants, chains such as McDonald's and Uno Chicago Grill have been making the switch to non trans-fat oils. Friendly's is finally jumping on the bandwagon and switching to a slightly friendlier oil.
While a switch away from trans-fats is an undeniably positive step, it's important to remember that just because a product doesn't contain trans-fat it doesn't mean it's healthy or low-fat. To learn more about trans fats and how they affect the body, click here.
