---- The most recent issue of Woman's World Magazine has a lovely recipe for Almond Joy Brownie Cupcakes featured on the cover.

The list of ingredients only reference to "fats" is :

1/4 cup oil

However - in the "nutritional analysis" it lists:

Trans Fat 2 g


In shopping for the "oil" I guess I should be looking for one that has Trans Fat as part of the "nutrient listing" on the label ?

--- and does this amount of "fat" get added to, or subtracted from a Zone block of fat ?


... from the "Danger Zone"

My "question" about "trans fats" came from this post at :

http://www.zonediet.com/RESOURCES/Forums/tabid/121/forumid/8/tpage/2/view/Topic/postid/25875/Default.aspx

which, for your entertainment, in full was :

**************************************************************

***************COMING SOON TO A FORUM THREAD NEAR YOU :


**********THE LATEST ISSUE OF WOMAN'S WORLD


*****FEATURING THEIR LATEST "COVER DIET"


*THE ONE THAT MARIE OSMOND LOST 40 POUNDS ON ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !


[ and - after YOU have lost those 40 pounds -
you can start putting them all back
with the recipe of the -

"SHORTCUT SWEETS" Easy Candy Bar Cupcakes

that shares "top billing" right next to the "cover diet" ! ! ! !


_________________________________________________

The "highlights" of the nutritional analysis of the "Easy Candy Bar Cupcakes" :


each cupcake

CALORIES 533 !

FAT 23 G ! !

TRANS FAT 2 G

[ Wowie Zowie it's even got some "TRANS FATS" !!!
When's the last time you saw TRANS FAT as an "ingredient" ? ]

CARBS 78 THAT'S NOT A TYPO !!!! ALMOST NINE FREAKING BLOCKS OF - CARBS in EVERY ONE !! ! !

-------Talk about a CONVENIENT WAY to get ALL of your carb blocks
for ALL of your Zone Meals for a whole day in one fell swoop ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

****************

Keep in mind that the PHOTO - a PROMINENT PHOTO - of the "cupcakes" - and -
the headline of "HOW MARIE LOST 40 POUNDS" - are of equal size and ON THE SAME LINE.

******** You can get an idea of exactly how this looks by going to :

https://www.kable.com/pub/wmnw/menu.asp

they don't have the "current" cover but they DO HAVE,
in exactlty the same format [ you mean they do this EVERY WEEK ? ],
SOMEONE ELSE WHO ALSO LOST A TON OF WEIGHT - RIGHT NEXT TO - A PHOTO OF A NICE ULTRAFATTENING DESSERT !

BTW :

First ingredient for the above recipe [ for disaster ] : 18 mimiature Almond Joy candy bars !

Note use of "miniature" candy bars ! That's becasue this version of the recipe was the "low calorie" one.

The "real" recipe calls for "full size".
