The war on trans fat started after New York City banned it from restaurant food is starting to spread.
LA County supervisors have voted to study the feasibility of banning artificial trans-fat from restaurants.
"I'm very concerned about the whole trans fat issue," Supervisor Yvonne Brathwaite Burke said after Tuesday's vote for the study. "Every time I buy something, I look to see if it has trans fat."
"what's next?" Asked Jot Condie, president of the 22,000-member California Restaurant Assn., "butter, cheese, or anything that has saturated fat..."
the Food and Drug Administration since last January required that trans-fats be listed on food labels on all packaged foods.
