Transfat: Banned for Life?

Katherine Mangu-Ward | December 5, 2006

The deed is done. Transfats were officially banned in NYC this afternoon. The vote was unanimous. Restaurants have until July 1, 2007 to replace the tasty fats in spreads and for ordinary deep frying, but get an extra year to fix their recipes for fried baked goods, like doughnuts. Eat 'em while you still can, New Yorkers.

We expect this kind of thing from uptight Yankees, but what about the home city of KFC? Could Louisville be next?
