Wendy's converts to trans fat-free oil (Orange County Register)

Wendy's International , the nation's third-largest hamburger chain, has switched all 6,000 of its U.S. restaurants to a healthier, non-hydrogenated cooking oil with zero grams of trans fat per serving, the company said.

I am very glad to read this new!
I have to say when i got to wendy's with the
family i do swipe a few frieds from the kids so
knowing they are useing healthier oil with less
trans fat is great news.

USUALLY at wendy's lately i eat the inside
of a deli select sandwich with 1 quarter
of the bread. (i like the chile but keeping
off it till the ulcer heals).

I hope mcdonalds and burger king follow this
path soon so my kids will be healthier! KIDS
love the fast food! MY kids dont have weight
issues at all so i allow them to eat this stuff
but in moderation.
GREAT to hear the change WENDY's is doing.

I'm with you there, Lisa, I sure hope the fast food chains will pick up on what true healthy food stuff is, and I also hope people will take interest in what REALLY is going into their mouth.

I have decided that for the next while I will be ordering jr. bacon cheeseburgers from Wendy's without the burger or cheese if I don't do the chili. I hate going to McDonald's cuz it is one place that I just don't have anything there that I can comfortably eat yet.

YES actually i am more of a TACO bell person.
THEY always have things i can pick apart and not
vomit or have foamies.

MCDONALDS has nothing.
AND then wendy's has options but they dont always sit
well in my pouch. EATING home cookin is the best
for this grumpy pouch.

Taco Bell for some reason doesn't unsettle my tummy too much either, even if I do the ground beef there, but at a burger joint...forget it. Not happenening. Good to know I am not alone there.
